During the probe, the genpd power_dev is added to the dpm_list after blk_ctrl due to its parent/child relationship. Making the blk_ctrl suspend after and resume before the genpd power_dev.
As a consequence, the system hangs when resuming the VPU due to the power domain dependency.
To ensure the proper suspend/resume order, add a device link betweem blk_ctrl and genpd power_dev. It guarantees genpd power_dev is suspended after and resumed before blk-ctrl.
Before discussing $subject patch, would you mind explaining to me why imx8m-blk-ctrl needs to use the ->suspend() callback at all?
Looking closer at that code (imx8m_blk_ctrl_suspend()), it calls pm_runtime_get_sync() for devices to power on "everything". Why isn't that managed by the consumer drivers (on a case by case basis) that are managing the devices that are attached to the genpds instead?
Kind regards Uffe
Hi Lucas, you know the driver architecture better than I do. Would you mind addressing Ulf concerns?
In addition to that, I would say that given that this is a bug fix, it would be nice to have it merged. Having a buggy driver in the kernel is not solving this kind of architectural question.
Best regards, Vitor Soares

This is a new patch, but is a follow-up of: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240409085802.290439-1-ivitro@gmail.com/
As suggested by Lucas, we are addressing this PM issue in the imx8m-blk-ctrl driver instead of in the imx8mm.dtsi.
