Hmm, I understand your point about this function not having to care about
pm_runtime_{get,put}, but I do not agree with your view that if it wanted to
care about it, it wouldn't be able to do the right thing because it doesn't
have the right device. After all, this function is about handling the
updates that this atomic commit is concerned about, so having the
old_state->dev drm_device pointer and its associated device should be
enough. Am I missing something?

Understood. Thanks!
