Subject: [PATCH] PM: runtime: Take active children into account in
pm_runtime_get_if_in_use()

For all practical purposes, there is no difference between the situation in which a given device is not ignoring children and its active child count is nonzero and the situation in which its runtime PM usage counter is nonzero. However, pm_runtime_get_if_in_use() will only increment the device's usage counter and return 1 in the latter case.

For consistency, make it do so in the former case either by adjusting pm_runtime_get_conditional() and update the related kerneldoc comments accordingly.
