This is still unbalanced at this point of abstraction, notably
keeping the RPMh vote at 0 permanently after the first
geni_se_resources_deactivate() since there's no counterpart in
_activate()

That said, the serial and UART drivers do rate calculations internally,
so perhaps trying to be overly smart about it wouldn't be a good thing
either.. Let's add a note in kerneldoc that the activate must be preceded
by a dev_pm_opp_set_xyz()

nit: this 'return' always returns 0
