I'm following the idea here I think.

Now the clock is enabled a second time. Because
runtime PM kicks in.

Do this instead:
pm_runtime_get_noresume()
pm_runtime_set_active()
pm_runtime_enable()

Now runtime PM knows it is active and will not call
runtime resume and enable the clock a second time.

This is right, now pm runtime will gate the clock
until the first GPIO is requested.

Use this on the errorpath instead:
pm_runtime_put_noidle()
pm_runtime_disable()
clk_disable_unprepare();

Now the code will not call runtime suspend to
gate the clock a second time.

Double-check the references to the clock and check
in debugfs that the clock really gets disabled if you're
not using any GPIOs.
