I think it is better to move the pm_runtime_get_sync calls after the mutex_lock_nested() to be really safe (and to not change the way DAI drivers were handling the pm_runtime).
This increases the amount of time we are sitting with the pcm_mutex held and I can't see a reason why we should need to do that. If there is a problem here I'd rather improve the drivers so that they can cope with having the power management happening after the lock, the main reason the drivers were doing this previously is that the lock happened to be held by the caller.
