While on several places the newer code is simpler, the end goal here is
to replace all occurrences of pm_runtime_get_sync() from the media 
subsystem, due to the number of problems we're having with this:

1. despite its name, this is actually a PM runtime resume call,
   but some developers didn't seem to realize that, as I got this
   pattern on some drivers:

        pm_runtime_get_sync(&client->dev);
        pm_runtime_disable(&client->dev);
        pm_runtime_set_suspended(&client->dev);
        pm_runtime_put_noidle(&client->dev);

   It makes no sense to resume PM just to suspend it again ;-)

   The name of the new variant is a lot clearer:
	pm_runtime_resume_and_get()

2. Usual *_get() methods only increment their use count on success,
   but pm_runtime_get_sync() increments it unconditionally. Due to
   that, several drivers were mistakenly not calling
   pm_runtime_put_noidle() when it fails;

3. Consistency: we did similar changes subsystem wide with
   for instance strlcpy() and strcpy() that got replaced by
   strscpy(). Having all drivers using the same known-to-be-safe
   methods is a good thing;

4. Prevent newer drivers to copy-and-paste a code that it would
   be easier to break if they don't truly understand what's behind
   the scenes.

Thanks,
Mauro
