How about introducing a resume/suspend callback pointer or list(if there

The suspend/resume() of cpu_subsys needs to check the callback pointer
and run it if available.

That's almost a new infrastructure then and looks more hackish :)

The resume/suspend() must be stored in the struct driver->pm? :)

Apart from that even cpufreq would be a bit hacky as we don't really need
per-cpu callbacks..


This maybe depends on where we want the issue to be fixed, right?
The cpufreq driver also can fix the issue if we run their cpu_driver resume/suspend callback earlier.

Another point, I just see cpuidle_resume() and cpuidle_pause() are called in the dpm_resume_noirq and dpm_suspend_noirq(). Not sure whether this can be applied to cpufreq.
