pm_runtime_get_sync() can return 1 on success.  Perhaps use
pm_runtime_resume_and_get()?

This maybe a false positive.

It's not.

The blamed commit 2557b4ba04df ("i2c: xiic: cosmetic cleanup") has:

-       ret = pm_runtime_get_sync(i2c->dev);
-
-       if (ret < 0)
-               dev_warn(&pdev->dev, "Failed to activate device for removal (%pe)\n",
+       ret = pm_runtime_get_sync(dev);
+       if (ret)
+               dev_warn(dev, "Failed to activate device for removal (%pe)\n",
                         ERR_PTR(ret));

So we need

diff --git a/drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-xiic.c b/drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-xiic.c
