Well, I have a board with an OMAP3 connected to a twl4030 for USB and I
noted that it wasn't power-managed properly and when I made that change,
it was.  I don't recall the exact details

This is probably related to

Commit: 56301df6bcaa ("phy: twl4030-usb: make runtime pm more reliable.")

I certainly only tested with that patch in place.

Looking at the code again, I cannot see why I thought I needed the
4724e277 patch.
Devices are initialised as RPM_SUSPENDED with a usage count of zero (in
pm_runtime_init) so when twl4030_usb_probe() calls
pm_runtime_get_sync(), that will increase the usage_count to 1 and
resume the device.  Then it calls pm_runtime_put_autosuspend() which
will (ultimately) drop the usage_count back to zero and suspend the
device.

So it looks like I messed up, but I'm sure I must have had a reason for
that patch.  I'll try to do some testing later in the week and will
report what I find.
