Huh, so it's even worse. :-(
I had a brief look at the runtime PM deployment for these drivers and
it's really messy. Unfortunate, I have limited knowledge about the
gpu/drm drivers, so I can't tell without a investing in a deeper
analyze, of how to convert to something more generic.

Yeah, please go ahead and try something, I am willing to help review.
