Subject: [PATCH 0/3] usb: phy: hold wakeupsource on usb phy events.

This patch set aims to hold wakeupsource per-PHY on usb connect/disconnect
events.

First patch introduces usb_phy_set_event which just sets
event to phy event.
In second patch, phy drivers call usb_phy_set_event for each phy event.
In third patch, wakeupsource is held when usb is enumerated in
peripheral mode and wakeupsource held temporarily on disconnect
event(to allow other parts of the system react to disconnect event).

latest patch-set:
* use USB_PHY_DEFAULT_WAKEUP_SRC_TIMEOUT instead of TEMPORARY_HOLD_TIME

v6:
* Break the patch into three sub patches
patch 1: Introduce usb_phy_set_event
patch 2: Call usb_phy_set_event from phy drivers
patch 3: Hold wakeupsource for connect events and
temporarily hold wakeupsource for disconnect events.
* Include usb_phy_wsource_init and usb_phy_wource_trash functionality
in usb_add_phy and usb_remove_phy respectively.

v5:
* with the new approach,i was able to chnage only 5 phy drivers
as mentioned below to use the wakeupsource funtionality.

drivers/phy/phy-omap-control.c
drivers/usb/phy/phy-ab8500-usb.c
drivers/usb/phy/phy-tahvo.c
drivers/usb/phy/phy-mv-usb.c
drivers/usb/phy/phy-gpio-vbus-usb.c

* Notification method not used any more.
* introduced usb_phy_set_event in phy.c to hold wakeupsource
* introduced usb_phy_wsource_init/usb_phy_wsource_trash in phy.c to
initialize/relese per-PHY wakeupsource.These interfaces called from
probe/remove functions of phy drivers.
* usb_phy_set_event called from phy drivers where usb enumeration
event is handled.
* usb_phy_set_event expects usb_phy handle where as phy-omap-control.c
provides its own type(omap_control_phy), so directly called __pm_stay_awake
and __pm_awake_event from phy-omap-control.c instead of calling
usb_phy_set_event.

v4:
* Temporarily hold wakeupsource patch integrated into main patch.
* As per feedback,dropped "enabled" module parameter.
* Introduced otgws_otg_usb3_notifications function to handle event
notifications from usb3 phy.
* Handled wakeupsource initialization,spinlock,registration of notifier block
per-PHY.
* Updated usb_phy structure.

v3:
* As per the feedback,no global phy pointer used.
* called the one-liner wakeupsource handling calls
directly instead of indirect functions implemented in v2.
* Removed indirect function get_phy_hook and used usb_get_phy
to get the phy handle..

v2:
* wakeupsource handling implemeted per-PHY
* Implemented wakeupsource handling calls in phy
* included Todd's refactoring logic.

v1:
* changed to "disabled by default" from "enable by default".
* Kconfig help text modified
* Included better commit text
* otgws_nb moved to otg_wakeupsource_init function
* Introduced get_phy_hook to handle otgws_xceiv per-PHY

Initial RFC:
* Included build fix from Benoit Goby and Arve Hj?nnev?g
* Removed lock->held field in driver as this mechanism is
provided in wakeupsource driver.
* wakelock(wl) terminology replaced with wakeup_source(ws).

From: Todd Poynor <[email protected]>

usb: phy: hold wakeupsource when USB is enumerated in peripheral mode

Some systems require a mechanism to prevent system to enter into suspend
state when USB is connected and enumerated in peripheral mode.

This patch provides an interface to hold a wakeupsource to prevent suspend.
PHY drivers can use this interface when USB is connected and enumerated in
peripheral mode.

A timed wakeupsource is temporarily held on USB disconnect events, to allow
the rest of the system to react to the USB disconnection (dropping host
sessions, updating charger status, etc.) prior to re-allowing suspend.

Hi Kiran, this is new stuff that is all your own work and you deserve
the credit.

Thanks for working to get this feature in shape for mainline!

Kiran, what Todd is saying is that $subject is From: Kiran, do you want
to resend with that change ? I think this is ready to be moved into my
testing/next otherwise.

I thanked him for his kind words.
No issues,I prefer not bothering you again by sending one more set of patches.
Please accept them if you feel the patches are good in shape.
Thank you so much for your time and support.
