Our current options:

1 - Do *not* patch pm_pc8.c, so we'll still fail the test. This way we can make
sure QA's Kernels will always have runtime PM enabled. Maybe we could change
the commit message and say "please check if your Kernel has runtime PM
support". Then we'd close the bug once QA has correctly configured their
machines.

2 - Apply Chris's patch and SKIP the test in case the machine does not have
runtime PM support on the Kernel. This will benefit people who only have PC8
support and don't want to bother with runtime PM support.

I'd vote for option 1, especially since in the future PC8 and RPM will be a
single feature, so we'll always require the autosuspend_delay_ms file to exist.
