Subject: PM: Introduce core framework for run-time PM of I/O devices (rev. 16)

Introduce a core framework for run-time power management of I/O
devices.  Add device run-time PM fields to 'struct dev_pm_info'
and device run-time PM callbacks to 'struct dev_pm_ops'.  Introduce
a run-time PM workqueue and define some device run-time PM helper
functions at the core level.  Document all these things.

Special thanks to Alan Stern for his help with the design and
multiple detailed reviews of the pereceding versions of this patch
and to Magnus Damm for testing feedback.

I've now tested v16 with my SuperH Mobile platform device Runtime PM
implementation. All seems fine and my patches for patches for drivers
such as i2c master, fbdev, v4l2 and uio behave as expected.

The patch "PM: Runtime PM v15 - Platform Device Bus Support" works
well with v16 and does not need any update.

Thanks for the ACK, but I have one more update to the patch.  Namely, I've
decided to change the return value of the ->runtime_idle() callback to int
as a result of the recent discussion on the PCI runtime PM patch from Matthew.

I'll post the updated patch in a little while.

Thanks,
Rafael
