On calling pm_runtime_get_sync() the reference count of the device is incremented. In case of failure, decrement the reference count before returning the error.

I've seen lots of similar patches recently. Instead of mass-patching the drivers this way, shouldn't pm_runtime_get_sync() (and similar functions) decrease the refcount on their failure path ? That would require patching drivers that already handle this issue, but I believe that would cause less churn, and more importantly, avoid the issue once and for good for new code.

Yeah the current interface looks rather dodgy, generally drivers aren't expected to clean up if the first function failed.

Rafael and Greg, what's your take on this here? See patch below and Laurent's comment above. -Daniel
