yeah, that's silly. We already have means for doing that:
my_probe()
{
[...]
pm_runtime_enable(dev);
pm_runtime_forbid(dev);
[...]
return 0;
}

why do you need to get xhci's usage counter in xhci_plat_probe() ?
And why would one xhci affect the other? They are different struct
device instances and, thus, have different pm usage counter. How would
one xhci's pm_runtime affect another?
PM runtime is not per driver, it's per device.
