SubjectRe: Re: [PATCH] spi: tegra20-slink: Fix runtime PM imbalance on error
Hi Andy,

Thank you for your advice!

Your suggestion is to use pm_runtime_put_noidle(), right?
The only difference between pm_runtime_put() and this function
is that pm_runtime_put() will run an extra pm_request_idle().

I checked this patched function again and found there is a
pm_runtime_put() in the normal branch of pm_runtime_get_sync().
Does this mean the original program logic need to execute idle
callback?

According to runtime PM's doc, the pm_runtime_get_sync() call
paired with a pm_runtime_put() call will be appropriate to ensure
that the device is not put back to sleep during the probe. Therefore
I think pm_runtime_put() is more appropriate here. Do you have
more detailed suggestion for why we should use _put_noidle()?

Regards,
Dinghao
