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. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

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.
