PM / Runtime: let rpm_resume() succeed if RPM_ACTIVE, even when disabled, v2

There are several drivers where the return value of
pm_runtime_get_sync() is used to decide whether or not it is safe to
access hardware and that don't provide .suspend() callbacks for system
suspend (but may use late/noirq callbacks.)  If such a driver happens
to call pm_runtime_get_sync() during system suspend, after the core
has disabled runtime PM, it will get the error code and will decide
that the hardware should not be accessed, although this may be a wrong
conclusion, depending on the state of the device when runtime PM was
disabled.

Drivers might work around this problem by using a test like:

   ret = pm_runtime_get_sync(dev);
   if (!ret || (ret == -EACCES && driver_private_data(dev)->suspended)) {
      /* access hardware */
   }

where driver_private_data(dev)->suspended is a flag set by the
driver's .suspend() method (that would have to be added for this
purpose).  However, that potentially would need to be done by multiple
drivers which means quite a lot of duplicated code and bloat.

To avoid that we can use the observation that the core sets
dev->power.is_suspended before disabling runtime PM and use that
instead of the driver's private flag.  Still, potentially many drivers
would need to repeat that same check in quite a few places, so it's
better to let the core do it.

Then we can be a bit smarter and check whether or not runtime PM was
disabled by the core only (disable_depth == 1) or by someone else in
addition to the core (disable_depth > 1).  In the former case
rpm_resume() can return 1 if the runtime PM status is RPM_ACTIVE,
because it means the device was active when the core disabled runtime
PM.  In the latter case it should still return -EACCES, because it
isn't clear why runtime PM has been disabled.

Tested on AM3730/Beagle-xM where a wakeup IRQ firing during the late
suspend phase triggers runtime PM activity in the I2C driver since the
wakeup IRQ is on an I2C-connected PMIC.
