pm_genpd_summary_show() first locks the gpd_list_lock, then the genpd lock.

Please preserve that order here as well, to prevent potential deadlocks.

Why the nesting, can this really cause lockdep warnings?

Before returning, you need to make sure there isn't a scheduled work
for powering off the genpd.
That might happen for example happen via genpd_poweroff_unused().

Otherwise, the caller of pm_genpd_remove() might free the memory while
the genpd struct is still in use...

I assume a cancel_delayed_work_sync() should do the trick here.
