Re: [PATCH] PCI: Do not enable async suspend for JMicron chips

From: Barto
Date: Wed Nov 05 2014 - 13:46:53 EST


this patch solves these 2 bug reports :

https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=84861

https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=81551

in simple words : JMicron IDE/Sata controlers family ( JMBxxx ) are not
fully compatible with async_suspend feature, when a user tries to put
his PC on standby mode then at wake-up JMicron IDE/Sata controlers will
not work, because of a brother-relation between the SATA and IDE part on
this JMicron PCI card
