[PATCH v1] coresight: Check runtime PM resume result

coresight_get_ref() ignores the return value of pm_runtime_get_sync()
and reports success even when runtime resume fails. A path is then built
and the CoreSight device may be accessed while it remains powered off.

Use pm_runtime_resume_and_get() so a failed resume is reported and its
runtime PM usage reference is rolled back. Drop the module and device
references acquired before the resume attempt when it fails.

Fixes: 5da5325fa856 ("coresight: moving PM runtime operations to core framework")
