Just for yoru information, there has been quite a few similar patches
submitted all across the kernel. I believe this is an issue of the
pm_runtime_get_sync() API, which really shouldn't require a put() when
it fails. For drivers that really don't expect pm_runtime_get_sync() to
fail (no I2C access to a regulator for instance, only SoC-internal
operations) I've instead decided to ignore the error completely. I don't
think poluting the whole kernel code base with this kind of "fixes" is a
good idea.
