[PATCH v3 5/6] PM / Runtime: force memory allocation with no I/O during runtime_resume callbcack

From: Ming Lei <hidden>
Date: 2012-10-29 12:26:36
Also in: linux-mm, lkml, netdev
Subsystem: driver core, kobjects, debugfs and sysfs, hibernation (aka software suspend, aka swsusp), power management core, suspend to ram, the rest · Maintainers: Greg Kroah-Hartman, "Rafael J. Wysocki", Danilo Krummrich, Linus Torvalds

This patch applies the introduced memalloc_noio_save() and
memalloc_noio_restore() to force memory allocation with no I/O
during runtime_resume callback on device which is marked as
memalloc_noio_resume.
