i2c: let I2C masters ignore their children for PM
When using a certain I2C device with runtime PM enabled on a certain I2C bus adaper the following happens: struct amba_device *foo \ struct i2c_adapter *bar \ struct i2c_client *baz The AMBA device foo has its device PM struct set to ignore children with pm_suspend_ignore_children(&foo->dev, true). This makes runtime PM work just fine locally in the driver: the fact that devices on the bus are suspended or resumed individually does not affect its operation, and the hardware does not power up unless transferring messages. However this child ignorance property is not inherited into the struct i2c_adapter *bar. On system suspend things will work fine. On system resume the following annoying phenomenon occurs: - In the pm_runtime_force_resume() path of struct i2c_client *baz, pm_runtime_set_active(&baz->dev); is eventually called. - This becomes __pm_runtime_set_status(&baz->dev, RPM_ACTIVE); - __pm_runtime_set_status() detects that RPM state is changed, and checks whether the parent is: not active (RPM_ACTIVE) and not ignoring its children If this happens it concludes something is wrong, because a parent that is not ignoring its children must be active before any children activate. - Since the struct i2c_adapter *bar does not ignore its children, the PM core thinks that it must indeed go online before its children, the check bails out with -EBUSY, i.e. the i2c_client *baz thinks it can't work because it's parent is not online, and it respects its parent. - In the driver the .resume() callback returns -EBUSY from the runtime_force_resume() call as per above. This leaves the device in a suspended state, leading to bad behaviour later when the device is used. The following debug print is made with an extra printg patch but illustrates the problem: [ 17.040832] bh1780 2-0029: parent (i2c-2) is not active parent->power.ignore_children = 0 [ 17.040832] bh1780 2-0029: pm_runtime_force_resume: pm_runtime_set_active() failed (-16) [ 17.040863] dpm_run_callback(): pm_runtime_force_resume+0x0/0x88 returns -16 [ 17.040863] PM: Device 2-0029 failed to resume: error -16 Fix this by letting all struct i2c_adapter:s ignore their children: i2c children have no business doing keeping their parents awake: they are completely autonomous devices that just use their parent to talk, a usecase which must be power managed in the host on a per-message basis.
