RPM's APIs are a bit of a trap and will return a negative errno for
the get functions if runtime PM is disabled in kconfig, even though
usually that would mean that the power domain is not ever disabled by
RPM.  I think in these checks you want "if (pm_runtime_get_if_in_use()
== 0)", and that seems to be a common pattern in other drivers.  With
that,
