Re: [PATCH v6 1/1] input: add driver for Bosch Sensortec's BMA150 accelerometer

I am pretty sure you want to call pm_runtime_enable() in bma150_probe()
so that parent controller can be suspended until somebody calls
bma150_open() and we mark the device as active (which, in turn, should
wake up its parent).

If I call pm_runtime_enable() I cannot use pm_runtime_set_active() later
according to the comment in __pm_runtime_set_status (runtime.c):
"If runtime PM of the device is disabled or its power.runtime_error
field is different from zero, the status may be changed either to
RPM_ACTIVE, or to RPM_SUSPENDED..."

If the PM of the device is enabled it will return -EAGAIN. Of course, we
could enable() in probe, then disable(); set_active(); enable(); in
open, but that seems a bit confused, right?

+static void bma150_close(struct bma150_data *bma150)
+{

And disable should go into bma150_remove() unless I misunderstand
runtime PM framework.

This is once again to make sure the PM is disabled when changing status.

I am not entirely familiar with the details of runtime PM, but either
the above works or we have to revert back to using #ifdefs which I would
prefer not to.
