This is generally not a good idea. You shouldn't enable a device for
runtime PM without first telling the PM core what state it is in.

This is very strange. Why have a pm_runtime_put with no balancing
pm_runtime_get?

And why use an async routine when you're about to unbind the driver?
Don't you want the callback to occur before the unbinding?
