I'll answer for Kevin.  This is done by the PM core, in order to 
prevent runtime power transitions from interfering with a system power 
transition.  The PM core increments the device's usage_count; this 
prevents the device from being runtime-suspended but it allows 
runtime-resume calls to go through.
