I'll double-check this at the entire series. Different sensor
drivers are handling this on different ways, which sounds
bad, as they are meant to be independent on the media bridge
driver.

Ok, but the end goal is not really reducing the number of lines,
but to have the code following the same pattern, and to avoid
cut-and-paste errors when new drivers are written.

The mt9m001 is one of the oldest sensor drivers, written a long time
before the PM runtime core, written for the soc_camera driver, back
in 2008. The port to use PM runtime isn't old:

commit 8fcfc491c6ca5887bb341b3a622cca3ed8e3c9f0
Author: Akinobu Mita <akinobu.mita@gmail.com>

media: mt9m001: switch s_power callback to runtime PM

It was part of an attempt to recover the soc_camera sensor drives
from staging.

Yet, the logic on this driver seems to be different than the
one used on more modern I2C sensors. So, better to re-check
everything.

The main problem is that other parts of the driver's core APIs
assume that get object methods will only increment the usage
counter if no errors. The pm_runtime_get_sync() is an exception.

Its name doesn't help at all: A function like that should, IMHO,
be called, instead:

pm_runtime_inc_usage_count_and_try_to_resume().

Or something similar, in order to make clearer that it always
increment the usage count, no matter what. If possible, all drivers
should get rid of it too (or alternatively add comments warning
people that keeping the usage_count incremented is desired on the
very specific places where it is really needed), as it is risky
to use something that has a different usage_count increement behavior
than other more usual *_get() functions.

With regards to mass-fixing it, I've seen several patches seen
to media fixing bugs due to the bad usage_count decrement logic.
So, the best is to solve them all at once, and stop using
pm_runtime_get_sync() inside the subsystem.

Thanks,
Mauro
