Right, and we do want to "suspend" i8042 (well, reset to the initial state we found it at bootup) before touching ACPI. If i8042 is async, given the fact that psmouse reset takes a long time, it is possible that we start suspending PNP before we are done with i8042. -- > Dmitry -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
