I think I could successfully argue that ARM is more important that SH.
If SH messes up it's sandbox the collateral damage isn't nearly so
severe. Don't follow the SH lead in this case.

Agreed. It scales better to change the hooks at runtime, which is
actually quite easy, but it still leaves the abstraction at the wrong
level.

Some questions to make sure I understand:
Do you have a lot of these cases?
Do non-OMAP devices also have to process the omap clock enable/disable
code too, or is this only for stuff that is internal to the chip?
Or is this the case where existing non-omap device drivers can also
drive the omap SoC hardware?

Yes, I've got patches which merge of_platform_bus_type with the
platform bus. This was an easy decision to make because the
of-specific bits (specifically, matching an of_device_id table with a
device tree node) are applicable to all bus types; i2c, spi, mdio,
platform, etc). The needed OF data structures have been moved into
struct device and struct device_driver so that of_platform_bus_type no
longer has anything different.
The drivers still need to care about OF when extra platform data needs
to be extracted from the DT node, but for IRQs and register ranges it
is automatic.
The omap case looks different. You've got special runtime pm ops that
you want to hook in; but only for omap_devices. It doesn't really
apply to more than one bus type in the system.

You don't have to reimplement the entire platform bus. You could
simply create a new bus type, but reuse all the existing platform bus
code. All that changes is the bus type that the device and the driver
gets registered on. Then you could easily replace only the functions
that matter. (do a git grep platform_bus_type to see how few
references there actually are. It looks like there are only 5
references to it in drivers/base/platform.c that you'd need to work
around; in platform_device_add(), platform_driver_register(), 2 in
platform_driver_probe(), and the register in platform_bus_init(). You
may not even need to reimplement platform_driver_probe().
It might even be as simple as doing this:
- pdev->dev.bus = &platform_bus_type;
+ if (!pdev->dev.bus)
+ pdev->dev.bus = &platform_bus_type;
So that a different bus type can be selected at device registration
time (but this might be a little on the dangerous side. It might be
better to have a wrapper function that accepts an omap_device, and
then does the appropriate registration so that the compiler can
type-check it for you).
Another way to look at the problem is that these runtime
customizations are kind of a property of the parent device (the bus,
not the bus_type). Would it make sense for parent devices to have
runtime ops to perform for each child that is suspended/resumed? That
would make it simple to register another device that implements the
bus behaviour and attach it at runtime instead of compile time.
So, instead of having all the platform_bus_type devices as children of
the "platform" device (/sys/devices/platform/*), you could set the
omap devices to be children of an omap bus device
(/sys/devices/omap/*). Different busses can also implement different
behaviour by using a different parent device. For example:
/sys/devices/platform
/sys/devices/omap-bus-a
/sys/devices/omap-bus-a/omap-bus-b
Thoughts?

Heh, I should read the whole email before replying. See above.
