Yeah, it should be covered, but I wonder if there is something in the
ELD update sequence that needs to call pm_runtime_get_sync()?  The ELD
sequence on AMD GPUs doesn't work the same as on other vendors.  The
GPU driver has a backdoor into the HDA device's verbs to set update
the audio state rather than doing it via an ELD buffer update.  We
still update the ELD buffer for consistency.  Maybe when the GPU
driver sets the audio state at monitor detection time that triggers an
interrupt or something on the HDA side which races with the CPU and
the power down of the GPU.  That still seems unlikely though since the
runtime pm on the GPU side defaults to a 5 second suspend timer.
