Forgetting to putting operation will result in reference leak here.
Fix it by replacing it with pm_runtime_resume_and_get to keep usage
counter balanced.

Thanks for the patch, but this is actually incorrect.
panfrost_job_hw_submit() is expected to unconditionally increment the pm
usage counter. This is because panfrost_job_hw_submit() can (currently)
never fail, so in this case the job is considered "submitted" (even
though it never reaches the hardware) and it's handled by the job timeout.
However this is at least the second time[1] this phantom "reference
leak" has been raised, so perhaps it's time to handle this better. I'll
post a patch reworking panfrost_job_hw_submit() so it can fail.
Thanks,
Steve
