For devices where ahci_platform_data provides suspend() there is an unbalance in clk enable/disable calls. The suspend path does not disable the clk, but the resume path enables it. This commit fixes it by always disabling the clk in the suspend path independent of there being an ahci_platform_data suspend method. On all drivers currently using a suspend method, the suspend method always succeeds, so change its return type to void, to avoid having the introduce somewhat complex error handling paths. The disabling of the clock on suspend is a functional change, to ensure this is ok I've audited all drivers using ahci_platform_data: arch/arm/mach-davinci/devices-da8xx.c: Does not use a suspend method arch/arm/mach-spear/spear1340.c: Does not use the clock framework drivers/ata/ahci_imx.c: Does have suspend and resume pdata methods, these disable / enable another clock, so likely it is ok to disable / enable the clock at of-node index 0 as well, I've ordered a wandboard to be able to test these changes.
This isn't your fault but similarly to the previous patch, I'd much prefer if drivers which need custom ops just override the whole operation and are allowed to use the default platform from their custom implementations as they see fit. Allowing partial overrides seems like an efficient thing to do at the beginning but if you continue to stack them, you eventually end up with giant pile of methods where figuring out which code paths are actually executed takes quite a bit of effort. I'd really like to avoid that. Thanks. -- tejun
