Shouldn't this happen automatically? My understanding is that power
domains are turned on automatically before ->probe() and then unless a
runtime PM reference is taken during ->probe() it will get turned off
again after ->probe()?

Is that not happening? Is auto-suspend perhaps getting in the way
somehow?
