[PATCH] Input: synaptics-rmi4 - retry reading SMBus version on resume

From: Jeffery Miller
Date: Wed May 10 2023 - 15:27:38 EST


On resume there can be a period of time after the
preceding serio_resume -> psmouse_deactivate call
where calls to rmi_smb_get_version fail with
-ENXIO.

The call path in rmi_smb_resume is rmi_smb_resume -> rmi_smb_reset ->
rmi_smb_enable_smbus_mode -> rmi_smb_get_version where
this failure would occur.

Adding a retry loop ensures that after rmi_smb_reset returns
the following rmi_driver_resume calls in rmi_smbus_resume can
succeed.

This behavior was seen on a Lenovo T440p machine that required
a delay of approximately 7-12ms.
The retry limit of 5 is chosen to be larger than
this observed delay.

With this patch the trimmed resume logs look similar to:
```
psmouse serio1: PM: calling serio_resume+0x0/0x8c @ 5399, parent: i8042
[5399] libps2:__ps2_command:316: psmouse serio1: f5 [] - 0/00000000 []
psmouse serio1: PM: serio_resume+0x0/0x8c returned 0 after 3259 usecs
...

...

...
rmi4_smbus 0-002c: PM: rmi_smb_resume ... returned 0 after 21351 usecs
```

Early boot dmesg include:
```
rmi4_smbus 0-002c: registering SMbus-connected sensor
rmi4_f01 rmi4-00.fn01: found RMI device, manufacturer: Synaptics, product: TM2722-001, fw id: 0
```

The resume order looks correct. The `psmouse serio1` resume returns
before the rmi_smb_resume is called showing the patch from
https://lore.kernel.org/all/89456fcd-a113-4c82-4b10-a9bcaefac68f@xxxxxxxxxx/
is applied and working for that ordering.

I attempted to try to rule out some interaction between the concurrent
input resume calls for other i8042 devices.
Adding a 7ms delay after psmouse_deactivate which is called in the
preceding psmouse serio1 serio_resume function also allows
this version call to succeed.

If the rmi_smb_probe device_disable_async_suspend patch is applied
it will also avoid this issue. However the time between
the psmouse_deactivate call for serio_resume and rmi_smb_resume
was over 60ms on my test machine. This would naturally be long
enough to avoid this particular delay.
