Yes, it is. > in case it *requires* dev->power.direct_complete to be set for devices > like these. And that makes me wonder, that perhaps we should try to > address that issue as well, no? Yes, in principle. But since the direct_complete handling needs to be fixed anyway, it doesn't matter a lot in practice, because the resume issue on HP ZBook 14u will not be reproducible anyway then. And since the dependency clearly is on a device with no callbacks, I'm not worried too much about that.
