The device link allows the pm framework to tie the supplier and
consumer. So, whenever the consumer is powered-on, the supplier
is powered-on first.

There are however cases in which the consumer wants to power-on
the supplier, but not itself.
E.g., A Graphics or multimedia driver wants to power-on the SMMU
to unmap a buffer and finish the TLB operations without powering
on itself. Some of these unmap requests are coming from the
user space when the controller itself is not powered-up, and it
can be huge penalty in terms of power and latency to power-up
the graphics/mm controllers.
There can be an argument that the supplier should handle this case
on its own and there should not be a need for the consumer to
power-on the supplier. But as discussed on the thread [1] about
ARM-SMMU runtime pm, we don't want to introduce runtime pm calls
in atomic paths, such as in arm_smmu_unmap.

We do not export symbols unless there are in-kernel users of them.
Where is the patch that adds a user for these functions?

My apologies for not putting the changes for the user of these APIs.
I will be sending a patch for the user (which would be:
"drivers/gpu/drm/msm/msm_iommu.c"). The patch will be included
with the arm-smmu runtime patch series. Right now I am facing issues
with the use of clk_bulk_*() APIs on 4.15-rc kernel.

But, I wanted to get opinions about this change since we had been
discussing about this in the arm-smmu runtime patch thread [1].

P.S.: A snippet of the change in the user of these APIs:

Well, pm_runtime_get/put_suppliers() were not designed to be used
outside of the runtime PM core code.  I need to have a deeper look
into things at this point, so give me some time.

Rafael

No problem, sorry for the delay.

It should be OK to export these routines as you proposed, but again,
please post this patch along with the driver changes depending on it.
