It's no longer safe to do so at that point because the restart handler runs in atomic context. The unpleasant details can be found at https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-i2c/msg46367.html > What > guarantees that the local notifier is called before the watchdog core's > restart notifier ? It would seem to me that a reboot notifier that triggers after the restart notifier (which, if successfully handled, does not return) would be rather pointless. > And what is the point of using the watchdog core's > reboot handler if it is bypassed anyway ? I don't think it's bypassed, it should be possible to register several reboot notifiers per device. It would also be possible to do this stuff in the core's reboot handler, but I have chosen not to do so because the core seems to avoid dealing with PM, which I assume is a design decision. Also, it would affect all other drivers with a restart handler, with (to me) unforeseeable effects. What do you think? > Also, why is it not necessary to call pm functions when the watchdog is > started, when it is stopped, and during suspend/resume ? These cases are handled automatically, AFAIK.

This patch ensures our parent is awake before a reboot takes place. This prevents situations in which the I2C host has been suspended and cannot be safely woken up anymore when it needs to talk to us. Signed-off-by: Ulrich Hecht <uli+renesas@fpond.eu> --- Hi! This is supposed to resolve the issue that came up in the review of "[PATCH v2] i2c: sh_mobile: implement atomic transfers" that the parent controller may be suspended when the restart method is called. See https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-i2c/msg46367.html for details.
