The time to check that is (a) when the device is registered (for the bus type/class/device type), (b) when it is added to (or removed from) a PM domain and (c) when a driver is bound to (unbound from) it. > Alternatively we could check once on the first suspend and cache it, That information may be stale by the time we suspend next time. > but I'm not sure that complexity would be worth it. I don't think that adding extra overhead to *every* suspend can be justified easily, however. -- I speak only for myself. Rafael J.
