This doesn't look good to me at all.
It potentially breaks the fundamental assumption of the direct_complete
mechanism that no devices with that flag set will ever be runtime resumed
during system suspend.
Which can happen with this change if a device with power.is_rpm_sleep is
resumed causing the parent to be resumed too.

And same here.

The only problem addressed by avoiding direct_complete is when runtime PM needs
to work during __device_suspend() for devices with direct_complete set. You
said that this was not the case with the i2c designware driver, so I'm not sure
what the purpose of this is.
It doesn't solve any other problems at all.

It is expected to be set by drivers, so by definition it is *not* owned by the
PM core.
