Rafael J. Wysocki fddbdd20c8 PM: runtime: Add safety net to supplier device release
[ Upstream commit d1579e61192e0e686faa4208500ef4c3b529b16c ]

Because refcount_dec_not_one() returns true if the target refcount
becomes saturated, it is generally unsafe to use its return value as
a loop termination condition, but that is what happens when a device
link's supplier device is released during runtime PM suspend
operations and on device link removal.

To address this, introduce pm_runtime_release_supplier() to be used
in the above cases which will check the supplier device's runtime
PM usage counter in addition to the refcount_dec_not_one() return
value, so the loop can be terminated in case the rpm_active refcount
value becomes invalid, and update the code in question to use it as
appropriate.

This change is not expected to have any visible functional impact.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
