These new functions are not part of the exported API.  You have made
them static, and part of the device layer.

These are created as wrappers to pm_runtime_* API which are then called
by the driver layer.  What I suggest is not creating these functions
(and the pdata-> function pointers to wrap them) but instead calling the
runtime PM api directly instead of using the pdata-> function pointers.
