Through a bisect, we identified that this patch, in v6.16-rc1,
introduces a regression on vfio-pci across all Intel QuickAssist (QAT)
devices. Specifically, the ioctl VFIO_GROUP_GET_DEVICE_FD call fails
with -EACCES.

Upon further investigation, the -EACCES appears to originate from the
rpm_resume() function, which is called by pm_runtime_resume_and_get()
within vfio_pci_core_enable(). Here is the exact call trace:

drivers/base/power/runtime.c: rpm_resume()
drivers/base/power/runtime.c: __pm_runtime_resume()
include/linux/pm_runtime.h: pm_runtime_resume_and_get()
drivers/vfio/pci/vfio_pci_core.c: vfio_pci_core_enable()
drivers/vfio/pci/vfio_pci.c: vfio_pci_open_device()
drivers/vfio/vfio_main.c: device->ops->open_device()
drivers/vfio/vfio_main.c: vfio_df_device_first_open()
drivers/vfio/vfio_main.c: vfio_df_open()
drivers/vfio/group.c: vfio_df_group_open()
drivers/vfio/group.c: vfio_device_open_file()
drivers/vfio/group.c: vfio_group_ioctl_get_device_fd()
drivers/vfio/group.c: vfio_group_fops_unl_ioctl(..., VFIO_GROUP_GET_DEVICE_FD, ...)

Is this a known issue that affects other devices? Is there any ongoing
discussion or fix in progress?

Thanks,
