rtc: Keep system awake until all expired RTC timers are handled
Current implementation of RTC interface allows for system suspend to
occur in the following cases:
(a) if a timer is set in the past and rtc_timer_do_work() is scheduled
to handle it, and
(b) if rtc_timer_do_work() is called to handle expired timers whose
handlers implement a preemption point.
A pending suspend request may be honoured in the above cases causing
timer handling to be delayed until after the next resume. This is
undesirable since timer handlers may have time-critical code to execute.
This patch makes sure that the system stays awake until all expired
timers are handled.
Note that all calls to pm_stay_awake() are eventually paired with
the single pm_relax() call in rtc_timer_do_work(), which is launched
using schedule_work().
