Leftover from CLASS() approach?

s/CLASS(pm_runtime_get_active_enabled)/ACQUIRE(pm_runtime_active_try_enabled)/

I like that this appears to unify the pm_runtime_resume_and_get() and
pm_runtime_get_sync() usages into common pattern.

Do you think the above should go in Documentation too?

Either way, for the usage of ACQUIRE(), looks good to me.
