Now, PM core supports asynchronous suspend/resume mode for devices

device may be completed in separate kernel thread. PM core ensures
all power state transition dependency between devices. This patch
enables designware i2c controllers to suspend/resume asynchronously.
This will take advantage of multicore and improve system suspend/resume
speed. After enabling all i2c devices, i2c adapters and i2c controllers
on ASUS T100TA tablet, the system suspend-to-idle time is reduced to
about 510ms from 750ms, and the system resume time is reduced to about
790ms from 900ms.

Nice reduction :-)

Does device_enable_async_suspend() need to be called before enabling runtime PM? I suppose not since there appears to have also related sysfs node for toggling it runtime.

I'm thinking if you could move the device_enable_async_suspend() call into drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-designware-core.c: i2c_dw_probe() and then also PCI enumerated adapter could take advantage of it.
