We normally runtime suspend when there are displays attached if they
are in the DPMS off state, however, if something wakes the GPU
we send a hotplug event on resume (in case any displays were connected
while the GPU was in suspend) which can cause userspace to light
up the displays again soon after they were turned off.
Prior to
commit 087451f372bf76 ("drm/amdgpu: use generic fb helpers instead of setting up AMD own's."),
the driver took a runtime pm reference when the fbdev emulation was
enabled because we didn't implement proper shadowing support for
vram access when the device was off so the device never runtime
suspended when there was a console bound. Once that commit landed,
we now utilize the core fb helper implementation which properly
handles the emulation, so runtime pm now suspends in cases where it did
not before. Ultimately, we need to sort out why runtime suspend in not
working in this case for some users, but this should restore similar
behavior to before.
v2: move check into runtime_suspend
v3: wake ups -> wakeups in comment, retain pm_runtime behavior in
runtime_idle callback

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
