We need to ensure the hardware is powered when we transmit a packet. But if it's not, we can't block to wait for it. So asynchronously request power in ipa_start_xmit(), and only proceed if the return value indicates the power state is active. If the hardware is not active, a runtime resume request will have been initiated. In that case, stop the network stack from further transmit attempts until the resume completes. Return NETDEV_TX_BUSY, to retry sending the packet once the queue is restarted. If the power request returns an error (other than -EINPROGRESS, which just means a resume requested elsewhere isn't complete), just drop the packet.

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.
