Re: Re: [PATCH] [v2] PCI: tegra194: Fix runtime PM imbalance on error

[dinghao.liu@zju.edu.cn]

Hi Bjorn,

In fact, most usage of pm_runtime_get_sync() is correct. I made 
a static analysis tool to check this imbalance in kernel and 
found about 80 bugs in dirvers. Some of my patches have been 
accepted and I'm trying to patch the rest as soon as possible.

Regards,
Dinghao
