I'm not entirely sure what you expect by insisting on things getting
broken *again*, but we got it, thanks.

I bisected it, and it looks like it's because of a bad conflict
resolution in stable.

The original commit is here:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=20b0dfa86bef0e80b41b0e5ac38b92f23b6f27f9

And the stable commit is here:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=9b0d360fd783c711fc1cafa51f3e03bdf8ca5518

For some reason, in the stable commit, pm_runtime_put ended up in
vc4_hdmi_cec_init while it should have been at the end of
vc4_hdmi_cec_adap_enable.

I'll send a patch to fix it.
