> The counter is incremented via pm_runtime_get even in failure case. > To correct the counter call pm_runtime_put in case of failure, too. How do you think about a wording variant like the following? Change description: The PM runtime reference counter is generally incremented by a call of the function “pm_runtime_get_sync”. Thus call the function “pm_runtime_put_autosuspend” also in one error case to keep the reference counting consistent. Would you like to add the tag “Fixes” to the commit message? Regards, Markus
