[PATCH] i2c: nvidia-gpu: fix autosuspend cleanup

From: Guangshuo Li

Date: Wed Aug 12 2026 - 05:35:32 EST


gpu_i2c_probe() calls pm_runtime_use_autosuspend(), but the remove
path does not call the matching pm_runtime_dont_use_autosuspend().

If the autosuspend delay is set to a negative value while autosuspend
is enabled, the runtime PM core increments usage_count to prevent
runtime suspend. Without undoing the autosuspend setting during
teardown, this reference is not dropped and usage_count remains
unbalanced.

Call pm_runtime_dont_use_autosuspend() during driver removal to
properly undo the autosuspend setting.

This issue was found by manual code inspection.
