From 9896322ae180e3520edec71e2480318e7196119c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ivo van Doorn Date: Thu, 27 Mar 2008 17:15:24 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] rt2x00: Ignore set_state(STATE_SLEEP) failure Some hardware never seem to accept the "goto sleep" command, since the legacy drivers don't have suspend and resume handlers the entire code for it was basically a educated guess (based on the "enable radio" code). This patch will only print a warning when the "goto sleep" command fails, and just continues as usual. Perhaps that means the device will not reach a sleep state and consumes more power then it should, but it is equally possible it simply needs some seconds longer to sleep. Anyway, by making the command non-fatal it will not block the rest of the suspend procedure. Signed-off-by: Ivo van Doorn Signed-off-by: John W.
