If mixel_lvds_phy_reset() fails in probe after pm_runtime_enable(),
the function returns directly without calling pm_runtime_disable(),
leaving runtime PM permanently enabled for the device.
Fix this by using devm_pm_runtime_enable() so that cleanup is
automatic on any probe failure or driver unbind. This also allows
removing the manual err label and the .remove callback.
