Hi Lucas:
Thanks for your comments.
There was one regulator_disable() operation at the end of the
 imx6_pcie_assert_core_reset() function before.
When create the 5/8 patch, I follow the same behavior to disable the
regulator just behind the imx6_pcie_assert_core_reset() function.

Yes, it is. Imx6_pcie_suspend_noirq doesn't have the regulator_disable.
The regulaor_enable is contained in imx6_pcie_deassert_core_reset().
Both of the regulator_disable and regulator_enabe are invoked once in
 imx6_pcie_resume_noirq.
So, the regulator is on and has a balanced usage count after resume.

Richard Zhu
