[PATCH v2] media: hi846: fix usage of pm_runtime_get_if_in_use()

From: Martin Kepplinger
Date: Tue Apr 25 2023 - 05:49:24 EST


pm_runtime_get_if_in_use() does not only return nonzero values when
the device is in use, it can return a negative errno too.

And especially during resuming from system suspend, when runtime pm
is not yet up again, -EAGAIN is being returned, so the subsequent
pm_runtime_put() call results in a refcount underflow.

Fix system-resume by handling -EAGAIN of pm_runtime_get_if_in_use().

v2 (thank you Sakari and Laurent):
* drop the other patch (the streaming-state in suspend/resume needs to
be solved differently).
* Sakari pointed out that many drivers are affected by this and that
runtime-pm might need changes instead. I think this patch doesn't hurt
and could serve as a reminder to do so.
