Linus, please pull from the for-linus branch at

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ieee1394/linux1394-2.6.git for-linus

to receive a fix of the laptop-refuses-to-suspend kind. Or simply apply
the patch from this mail.


There is still an old underlying oddness though which I ask the PPC
folks to investigate and possibly fix post 2.6.23: On iBook G3 and
older PowerBooks, the onboard FireWire controller's pci_dev
current_state remains PCI_UNKNOWN long after initialization. Sounds like
a bug in platform code to me.

firewire: fw-ohci: ignore failure of pci_set_power_state (fix suspend regression)

Fixes (papers over) "Sleep problems with kernels >= 2.6.21 on powerpc",
http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/8/25/155. The issue is that the FireWire
controller's pci_dev.current_state of iBook G3 and presumably older
PowerBooks is still in PCI_UNKNOWN instead of PCI_D0 when the firewire
driver's .suspend method is called.

Like it was suggested earlier in http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/10/24/13, we
do not fail .suspend anymore if pci_set_power_state failed.
