What's your idea about this patch? We hit the issue when enabling Android on a latest tablet. After suspend-to-ram wakeup, serial console doesn't work. This serial port is bound by pnpcore driver. At suspending, static int __pnp_bus_suspend(struct device *dev, pm_message_t state) { ... if (pnp_can_disable(pnp_dev)) { error = pnp_stop_dev(pnp_dev); if (error) return error; } if (pnp_dev->protocol->suspend) pnp_dev->protocol->suspend(pnp_dev, state); return 0; } pnp_stop_dev calls dev->protocol->disable. As for ACPI device, that disable callback calls _DIS. Based on ACPI spec, driver need turn off the device before disabling it by _DIS. That means, after pnp_stop_dev returns, the device is at OFF state. Then, __pnp_bus_suspend calls pnp_dev->protocol->suspend, which continues to access the device while the device is at OFF. Our firmware just provides _DIS for the device. There is no _STS method. Then, after wakeup, the device doesn't work. But just like what the patch points out, pnp_dev->protocol->suspend continues to access the device while the device is at OFF. It's not safe. The patch looks like a workaround. Another possible fix is to just delete the calling of pnp_stop_dev in function __pnp_bus_suspend, as suspend is not equal to _disable_. The deletion might be a little intrusive. That's why we sent a workaround patch to LKML. Which one is better?
