It looks like this is also relevant to 3.2, but the code got moved
around a bit between 3.2 and 3.3. Attaching my (untested) backport.

It is easier to change the specification to fit the program than vice versa.

Subject: [PATCH] PM / Runtime: don't forget to wake up waitqueue on failure

commit f2791d733a2f06997b573d1a3cfde21e6f529826 upstream.

This patch (as1535) fixes a bug in the runtime PM core. When a
runtime suspend attempt completes, whether successfully or not, the
device's power.wait_queue is supposed to be signalled. But this
doesn't happen in the failure pathway of rpm_suspend() when another
autosuspend attempt is rescheduled. As a result, a task can get stuck
indefinitely on the wait queue (I have seen this happen in testing).

The patch fixes the problem by moving the wake_up_all() call up near
the start of the failure code.
