The code path is related with the runtime PM, so it's likely depending on the device state, e.g. long-time pause or such. I don't think Win 10 plays a role, but who knows. In anyway, let me know if this helps. Basically I can merge it even for now, as the fix shouldn't give a regression. But of course it'd be better to have a test result :) thanks, Takashi
