Can you send the third patch with the power management code?  I think it is important functionality.

Furthermore, a review of the power management patch will help with getting the flush patch accepted.  If the power management patch is reviewed and acked as is, the flush patch is probably ok, too, as is.  If there are changes to power management that are also applicable to the flush patch, it would be good to keep it all consistent when adding the functionality to the api.

I think this is almost ready.  See comments in NTB: Add AMD PCI-Express NTB driver.

Actually, I have answered the question in V2 comments. Now again, 
I want to submitted all power management related code if runtime part is ready.

I want to add flush function into ntb_transport.c, but I can't verify the implementation
Because hardware is not ready.  So I just define a interface this time for future use.
I notice there are lot of interface that hasn't been used in ntb.h.
