      x86: Use syscore_ops instead of sysdev classes and sysdevs · f3c6ea1b
      Rafael J. Wysocki 提交于
      Some subsystems in the x86 tree need to carry out suspend/resume and
      shutdown operations with one CPU on-line and interrupts disabled and
      they define sysdev classes and sysdevs or sysdev drivers for this
      purpose.  This leads to unnecessarily complicated code and excessive
      memory usage, so switch them to using struct syscore_ops objects for
      this purpose instead.
      
      Generally, there are three categories of subsystems that use
      sysdevs for implementing PM operations: (1) subsystems whose
      suspend/resume callbacks ignore their arguments entirely (the
      majority), (2) subsystems whose suspend/resume callbacks use their
      struct sys_device argument, but don't really need to do that,
      because they can be implemented differently in an arguably simpler
      way (io_apic.c), and (3) subsystems whose suspend/resume callbacks
      use their struct sys_device argument, but the value of that argument
      is always the same and could be ignored (microcode_core.c).  In all
      of these cases the subsystems in question may be readily converted to
      using struct syscore_ops objects for power management and shutdown.
