SubjectRe: [PATCH/RFC v2] ARM: amba: Remove AMBA level regulator support
Hi Mark,

I realize what the intention is with this patch; but I am not sure we
have thought about all consequence it might have.

OK, so the power domain which implement runtime PM support, shall be
responsible for handling the vcore regualtor instead of the amba bus.
That should be fine.

But, how should those amba drivers that implements runtime PM support be
able to switch of the vcore regulator during normal suspend? In normal
suspend case we can not use pm_runtime_put/pm_runtime_put_sync to
trigger the power domain runtime functions to switch of vcore. This is
kind of more generic problem when dealing with power domains, but as
said this patch will have consequences.

As far as I can see, the power domain must then implement a
suspend_noirq function to make sure same things is done as for the
runtime_suspend function. Do you agree with this as well or is there
another option?

Kind regards
Ulf Hansson
