Hi,

is there any point during system suspend one can
be sure that autosuspend mechanisms are deactivated?

	Regards

There isn't any "autosuspend mechanism" really; autosuspend is just one 
part of the runtime PM facility.

Thus, autosuspend is implemented using a timer and the PM work queue.  
The work queue has the WQ_FREEZABLE flag set, so it won't run at all 
during system suspend and resume.  This means there won't be any 
delayed autosuspends at those times.

On the other hand, if the autosusped delay has already elapsed when
pm_runtime_autosuspend() is called then it will bypass the work queue
and directly start a runtime suspend.  So there may be an undelayed
autosuspend during system suspend.
