Thanks your pointing out. You are totally right.
Rechecked the related driver code, there is one place which starting from _STANDBY with idle_bias_off.
It should be the main reason of bringing unpaired issue.

Meanwhile, is it useful to add one warning there for that case?
After all, in probing, set the bias to _STANDBY even idle_bias_off == 1, and calling get_runtime_sync(), it
will let the code more obscure. So giving a warning there to indicate the driver:
it is not suggested that in probing, set the bias to _STANDBY even idle_bias_off == 1.
