Sorry for missing this earlier, I looked at the code again and
realized why i put it at the end of the routine.

The routine looks like this

for (all channels)
if (!ch->serving)
break;

if (i == pl08x->vd->channels) {
/* No physical channel available, cope with it */
return NULL;
}

pm_runtime_get_sync(&pl08x->adev->dev);

So, this has to be put at end only. We don't want to call this if no physical
channel is free.
