Hi,

imx_clk_scu_probe() calls pm_runtime_use_autosuspend() for non-CPU
clocks, but its probe failure paths do not call the matching
pm_runtime_dont_use_autosuspend() before disabling runtime PM.

If the autosuspend delay is set to a negative value while autosuspend
is enabled, the runtime PM core increments usage_count to prevent
runtime suspend. Without calling pm_runtime_dont_use_autosuspend()
during cleanup, this reference is not dropped and usage_count remains
unbalanced.

Add the missing pm_runtime_dont_use_autosuspend() calls to the probe
failure paths before disabling runtime PM.

This issue was found by manual code inspection.

This is not complete fix. I just write one, see below:

imx_clk_scu_probe() sets up runtime PM for non-CPU clocks by calling
pm_runtime_use_autosuspend(), pm_runtime_enable(), and
pm_runtime_resume_and_get(). The probe failure paths do not properly
undo these operations:

1. When pm_runtime_resume_and_get() fails, pm_runtime_dont_use_autosuspend()
   is not called before pm_runtime_disable(), leaving the autosuspend
   setting unbalanced.

2. When __imx_clk_scu() fails, pm_runtime_disable() is called
   unconditionally even for CPU clocks, which never had pm_runtime_enable()
   called, causing an unbalanced disable depth. For non-CPU clocks,
   neither pm_runtime_put_noidle() nor pm_runtime_dont_use_autosuspend()
   are called, leaving both the usage count and autosuspend setting
   unbalanced.

Fix the first path by adding pm_runtime_dont_use_autosuspend() before
pm_runtime_disable(). Fix the second path by guarding all three cleanup
calls — pm_runtime_put_noidle(), pm_runtime_dont_use_autosuspend(), and
pm_runtime_disable() — with the non-CPU clock check.
