How do you think about a wording variant like the following?

Change description:
The PM runtime usage counter is incremented even if a call of
the function âpm_runtime_get_syncâ failed. Thus decrement it also
in an error case so that the reference counting is kept consistent.


Would you like to add the tag âFixesâ to the commit message?


Can it make sense to combine the software adjustment with the
update step âmedia: exynos4-is: Fix runtime PM imbalance in fimc_is_probeâ?

Is there a need to use a label like âput_pmâ?
