Description:
The /sys/power/pm_async file controls the switch allowing the
user space to enable or disable asynchronous suspend and resume
of devices. If enabled, this feature will cause some device
drivers' suspend and resume callbacks to be executed in parallel
with each other and with the main suspend thread. It is enabled
if this file contains "1", which is the default. It may be
disabled by writing "0" to this file, in which case all devices
will be suspended and resumed synchronously.
