When requesting log status, the block might be powered off, but registers
are being read.
Avoid reading the registers if the device is not resumed, thus also avoid
powering up the device just for log status.

Changes in v3:
- Changed to check return value of pm_runtime_get_if_active() and only call
pm_runtime_put() if the device is active.
- Link to v2: https://patch.msgid.link/20260522-bcmpipm-v2-1-a3da66cbc9f0@kernel.org
Changes in v2:
- changed to use pm_runtime_get_if_active()
- add corresponding put()

As far as I understand, the discussion on v2 concluded there was no need
to test pm_active here. Did I miss anything ?
