Ah, yes. This should have been added years ago; guess I forgot. :-(

Initially, we didn't want the PM core to do this automatically because
we thought some devices might want to remain runtime-suspended
following a system resume, and only the device driver would know what
to do.

Raphael, now that we have the direct_complete mechanism, can we revisit
this? Should the PM core automatically call pm_runtime_set_active() if
dev->power.direct_complete isn't set? Perhaps in device_resume_early()
prior to the pm_runtime_enable() call?

It's possible we discussed this and decided against it at the time when
direct_complete was added, but if so I don't remember what was said.
