[PATCH] PM / runtime: Document steps for device removal

[Krzysztof Kozlowski]

Put a reminder that during device removal drivers should revert all PM
runtime changes from the probe. Also add a note that
pm_runtime_disable() won't wait for pending suspend requests if
autosuspend is not disabled before.

 The user space can effectively disallow the driver of the device to power manage
 it at run time by changing the value of its /sys/devices/.../power/control
 attribute to "on", which causes pm_runtime_forbid() to be called.  In principle,
