But if PM_RUNTIME is enabled along with it, I don't think it will make much
of a different, will it?

Building the kernel with genpd and without PM_RUNTIME is possible today,
but is it really useful?  To me, it only seems to make people try to
reinvent the wheel "because PM_RUNTIME may be unset".

I have to say I'm seriously considering to make PM_SLEEP select
PM_RUNTIME too as that would make quite a few things a *lot* simpler.
