Yes, sorry.

Yup.

I'd rather try to power it up before enabling runtime PM, because in
order to do the latter properly, you need to know if the device is
active or suspended to start with.

So you need something like (pseudo-code)

if (this_device_needs_to_be_on(ACPI_COMPANION(dev))) {
   acpi_device_set_power(ACPI_COMPANION(dev), ACPI_STATE_D0);
   pm_runtime_set_active(dev);
} else {
   pm_runtime_set_suspended(dev);
}

and then you can enable PM-runtime.
