As commented on '[v2,1/6] drivers: qcom: rpmh-rsc: return if the
controller is idle', this seems potentially
racy. _is_idle() could report the controller as idle, even though some
TCSes are in use (after _is_idle() visited them).

Additional locking may be needed or a comment if this situation should
never happen on a sane system (I don't know enough about RPMh and its
clients to judge if this is the case).
