pm.gpu_idle will be false (dev_priv is zeroed) until the init_runtime_pm is called.
In the call stack mentioned above we might see a call to intel_runtime_pm_gpu_idle.
If runtime pm is not initialized by now, pm.gpu_idle will be false and we will do a
runtime_put, without a matching runtime_get.
However in you patch
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/intel-gfx/2013-December/037729.html, i saw
you have moved the initializing gpu_idle in intel_pm_setup, which will fix this problem.
We will not need this patch with your new patches.
only concern in this patch is that we are scattering the pm initialization across two
function (runtime_pm_init and pm_setup).
