On Cherry Trail devices under Windows the PWM controller used for the backlight is considered part of the GPU even though it is part of the LPSS block and thus is an entirely different independent hardware unit. Because of this on Cherry Trail the GPU's (GFX0 ACPI node) _PS3 and _PS0 methods save and restore the PWM controller registers. If userspace blanks the screen before suspending, such as e.g. GNOME does, then the PWM controller will be runtime-suspended when the suspend starts. This causes the GFX0 _PS? methods to save a value of 0xffffffff for the PWM control register and to restore this value on resume. 0xffffffff is not a valid value for the register and writing this causes problems such as e.g. a flickering backlight. This commit adds a prepare method to the dev_pm_ops and makes it return 0 on Cherry Trail devices forcing a runtime-resume before other device's suspend methods run. This fixes the reading and writing back of 0xffffffff. Since we now always runtime-resume the device on suspend, it will be resumed on resume too and we no longer need to check for the GFX0 _PS0 method having resumed it underneath us, so this commit removes the now no longer necessary complete dev_pm_op.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
