Hello Dinghao,

Thank you for the patch.

I have however received multiple similar patches recently, for different
drivers. I've CC'ed Rafael, the PM maintainer, in one of those e-mail
threads, and questioned whether we should really mass-patch drivers, or
fix the issue in pm_runtime_get_sync(). I'll defer pushing this patch
until that discussion comes to a conclusion.
