In the case consumer device is runtime resumed, while the link to the
supplier is removed, the earlier call to pm_runtime_get_sync() made from
rpm_get_suppliers() does not get properly balanced with a corresponding
call to pm_runtime_put(). This leads to that suppliers remains to be
runtime resumed forever, while they don't need to.

Let's fix the behaviour by calling rpm_put_suppliers() when dropping a
device link. Not that, since rpm_put_suppliers() checks the
link->rpm_active flag, we can correctly avoid to call pm_runtime_put() in
cases when we shouldn't.

Rafael, I am not sure if this is safe from locking point of view. The device
link write lock has been taken when pm_runtime_drop_link() is called, hence I
assume calling rpm_put_suppliers() should be fine!? If not, can you please
advise how to change?

Kind regards
Uffe

Holding the lock should be sufficient for the list to be stable, so
AFAICS it is OK.

Thanks,

So the patch has been applied, thanks!
