Side note: We could do more of the same by also replacing pm_runtime_enable()
with devm_pm_runtime_enable(), only I don't know if the additional
call to pm_runtime_dont_use_autosuspend() in its disable callback would
be a functional change. I also don't know if pm_runtime_put() in the remove
function is necessary or if it even makes sense. Any idea ?

Thanks,
