How about the following description.
/**
390  * pm_runtime_general_get - Bump up usage counter of a device and resume it.
391  * @dev: Target device.
392  *
393  * Increase runtime PM usage counter of @dev first, and carry out runtime-resume
394  * of it synchronously. If __pm_runtime_resume return negative value(device is in
395  * error state), we to need decrease the usage counter before it return. If
396  * __pm_runtime_resume return positive value, it means the runtime of device has
397  * already been in active state, and we let the new wrapper return zero instead.
398  *
399  * Resume @dev synchronously and if that is successful, and increment its runtime
400  * PM usage counter if it turn out to equal to 0. The runtime PM usage counter of
401  * @dev has been incremented or a negative error code otherwise.

I think it's OK.

OK, good idea.
