Since the deferring the TLB maintenance doesn't look like the best approach [1],
how about if we try to power-up only the smmu from different client
devices such as,
GPU in the unmap path. Then we won't need to add pm_runtime_get/put() calls in
arm_smmu_unmap().

The client device can use something like - pm_runtime_get_supplier() since
we already have the device link in place with this patch series. This should
power-on the supplier (which is smmu) without turning on the consumer
(such as GPU).

pm_runtime_get_supplier() however is not exported at this moment.
Will it be useful to export this API and use it in the drivers.

Adding Rafael J. Wysocki for suggestions on pm_runtime_get_suppliers() API.
