If pm_runtime_get_conditional() is exported, shouldn't it also be
documented in Documentation/power/runtime_pm.rst?

But I'm dubious about exporting it because
__intel_runtime_pm_get_if_active() is the only caller, and you end up
with the same pattern there that we have before this series in the PM
core.  Why can't intel_runtime_pm.c be updated to use
pm_runtime_get_if_active() or pm_runtime_get_if_in_use() directly, and
make pm_runtime_get_conditional() static?
