Rafael J. Wysocki 70fb9a2523 driver core: Document limitation related to DL_FLAG_RPM_ACTIVE
If device_link_add() is called twice in a row to create a stateless
device link for the same consumer-supplier pair without an attempt
to delete the link between these calls, and the second caller passes
DL_FLAG_RPM_ACTIVE to it in flags, calling either device_link_del()
or device_link_remove() immediately after that will leave the link's
supplier device with nonzero PM-runtime usage counter, which may
prevent the supplier from being runtime-suspended going forward
until the link is deleted by another invocation of device_link_del()
or device_link_remove() for it.

Even though this is confusing and may lead to subtle issues, trying
to avoid it in the framework also may cause problems to appear, so
document it as a known limitation.

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.

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.
