[PATCH 2/4] accel/rocket: fix runtime PM refcount leak in rocket_job_run()

From: Wentao Liang

Date: Tue Sep 15 2026 - 00:13:25 EST


rocket_job_run() powers the NPU core up with pm_runtime_get_sync(),
which increments the runtime PM usage counter even when it fails, and
then returns the fence without dropping the reference on both the
pm_runtime_get_sync() and the iommu_attach_group() failure paths.

At that point core->in_flight_job is still unset, so neither
rocket_job_handle_irq() nor rocket_reset() will balance the counter
later, and the core can never runtime suspend again.

Use pm_runtime_resume_and_get() instead, which does not bump the usage
counter on failure, and drop the reference with
pm_runtime_put_autosuspend() if iommu_attach_group() fails.
