If during system resume the device runtime resume is called BEFORE
normal resume of device, then you're right: clock will be unbalanced. 

But such case does not make sense. pm_runtime_get_sync() is called when
someone wants to use the dmaengine/pl330... but the pl330 driver is
still suspended in that time!

If runtime resume is called AFTER normal resume of device - then it is
fine with my code.

I've been there... :)
