PM / Domains: Allow runtime PM during system PM phases
In cases when a PM domain isn't powered off when genpd's ->prepare() callback is invoked, genpd runtime resumes and disables runtime PM for the device. This behaviour was needed when genpd managed intermediate states during the power off sequence, as to maintain proper low power states of devices during system PM suspend/resume. Commit ba2bbfbf (PM / Domains: Remove intermediate states from the power off sequence), enables genpd to improve its behaviour in that respect. The PM core disables runtime PM at __device_suspend_late() before it calls a system PM "late" callback for a device. When resuming a device, after a corresponding "early" callback has been invoked, the PM core re-enables runtime PM. By changing genpd to allow runtime PM according to the same system PM phases as the PM core, devices can be runtime resumed by their corresponding subsystem/driver when really needed. In this way, genpd no longer need to runtime resume the device from its ->prepare() callback. In most cases that avoids unnecessary and energy- wasting operations of runtime resuming devices that have nothing to do, only to runtime suspend them shortly after. Although, because of changing this behaviour in genpd and due to that genpd powers on the PM domain unconditionally in the system PM resume "noirq" phase, it could potentially cause a PM domain to stay powered on even if it's unused after the system has resumed. To avoid this, schedule a power off work when genpd's system PM ->complete() callback has been invoked for the last device in the PM domain.
