What's the point of runtime PM if nothing is done based on it? This is
the current behavior of the driver.

I'm not seeing any behavior change in cdns3-ti since its addition in Oct
2019.

Why care about being enabled or disabled if we don't do anything based
on that? Children does do runtime PM stuff but I don't understand how
that could influence us.
