Subject: [PATCH] iio: light: isl29028: fix runtime PM reference leak on error
 paths

isl29028_read_raw() and isl29028_write_raw() take a runtime PM reference
with pm_runtime_resume_and_get() but return directly on their error
paths without dropping it. The usage count never balances again and the
device stops entering autosuspend for good. In isl29028_read_raw() this
needs a regmap access to fail; in isl29028_write_raw() one rejected
sysfs write is enough, for example

  echo 200 > in_proximity_sampling_frequency

which is outside the [1:100] range and returns -EINVAL with the
reference still held.

Take the reference with PM_RUNTIME_ACQUIRE_AUTOSUSPEND() instead, so it
is released on every return path.

This also stops the return value of pm_runtime_put_autosuspend() from
reaching userspace. That value only says whether the device could be
suspended right away, so -EAGAIN or -EPERM turns a successful access
into a failure, and with CONFIG_PM=n the stub returns -ENOSYS on every
access.
