 Oops. I should have looked for a reply before responding to your v4.

It is a little odd to mix and match, but I think it makes sense in
this case.  Can see why people might disagree (maybe it was me!)

No, you still need some calls, because the devm_pm_runtime_enable()
registers a callback that only does part of what you have - it leaves
the device in an unknown state. If you want to power it up again so
that you can in turn switch it off cleanly (and hence handle the
non runtime pm case nicely) then you still need to do that.

The sleep is still useful because we may not have a controllable regulator.
In that case we want to go to a low power state anyway.

If we do have a controllable regulator, then sleeping followed by hitting
the power button does no harm.
