In many case, we need to check return value of pm_runtime_get_sync,
but it brings a trouble to the usage counter processing. Many callers
forget to decrease the usage counter when it failed. It has been
discussed a lot[0][1]. So we add a function to deal with the usage
counter for better coding and view. Then, we replace pm_runtime_get_sync
with it in fec_main.c

  PM: runtime: Add a general runtime get sync operation to deal with
    usage counter
  net: fec: Fix reference count leak in fec series ops
