I proposed a different approach that in contrast to usage_power:

- is well defined
(so driver authors and consumers know what to provide or expect resp.);
- has good name people understand without reading documentation;
- fully covers the problem Clemens want to address;
- fully covers what the only implementing lowlevel driver does; and
- is easy to implement based on the patches in this series

This is not what I call "forward progress". I take it personal that
after I pointed out technical shortcomings with this patch set and even
suggested a better concept, you didn't even made the effort to argue
but instead simply went on applying the patches.

Can you please point out what I'm missing?

Best regards
Uwe
