I think it would be fair to mention that is related to the async
suspend path, in dpm_suspend().

Overall, by looking at the behavior in dpm_suspend() of async
suspended devices, it does look a bit fragile to me.

My worries is that we put asynced suspended devices in the
dpm_suspended_list, no matter if the device was successfully suspended
or not. This differs from the no-async path.

In the long run, maybe we should change that instead?
