Last two phrases are redundat. Drop the "Introduce..." one.

Current power_on prevents from calling msm_dp_ctrl_on_stream() several
times. How is it prevented after the change?

If you get here, there was at least one active stream, wasn't it?

Why?
General comment. You are not just replacing power_on with
active_stream_cnt. You are also introducing sequence changes, but it is
not covered in the cover letter. It's not clear, why those changes are
legitimage or why they are required.
