Rafael J. Wysocki 4c06c4e6cf driver core: Fix possible supplier PM-usage counter imbalance
If a stateless device link to a certain supplier with
DL_FLAG_PM_RUNTIME set in the flags is added and then removed by the
consumer driver's probe callback, the supplier's PM-runtime usage
counter will be nonzero after that which effectively causes the
supplier to remain "always on" going forward.

Namely, device_link_add() called to add the link invokes
device_link_rpm_prepare() which notices that the consumer driver is
probing, so it increments the supplier's PM-runtime usage counter
with the assumption that the link will stay around until
pm_runtime_put_suppliers() is called by driver_probe_device(),
but if the link goes away before that point, the supplier's
PM-runtime usage counter will remain nonzero.

To prevent that from happening, first rework pm_runtime_get_suppliers()
and pm_runtime_put_suppliers() to use the rpm_active refounts of device
links and make the latter only drop rpm_active and the supplier's
PM-runtime usage counter for each link by one, unless rpm_active is
one already for it.  Next, modify device_link_add() to bump up the
new link's rpm_active refcount and the suppliers PM-runtime usage
counter by two, to prevent pm_runtime_put_suppliers(), if it is
called subsequently, from suspending the supplier prematurely (in
case its PM-runtime usage counter goes down to 0 in there).

Due to the way rpm_put_suppliers() works, this change does not
affect runtime suspend of the consumer ends of new device links (or,
generally, device links for which DL_FLAG_PM_RUNTIME has just been
set).

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
