>From my understanding, auto power management is for automatically suspending and resuming a driver whenever it is idle. Obviously this is a bad for this type of driver as it would turn off the radio whenever it was idle. It is not necessary to remove suspend/resume support in order to drop auto power management from this driver. In fact doing so would be a mistake in my opinion. The current suspend/resume cycle ensures the radio if off during suspend, and restores it's last state during resume. These changes would leave the radio in it's current state, consuming power if it were on, while the system is suspended. This is a drastic deviation from the current behavior and would most likely not be appreciated by users that expect the device to go off during suspend and back on after resume. I NACK this change due to the complete removal of suspend/resume support.
