Rafael J. Wysocki 4fb352df14 PM: sleep: Do not flag runtime PM workqueue as freezable
Till now, the runtime PM workqueue has been flagged as freezable, so it
does not process work items during system-wide PM transitions like
system suspend and resume.  The original reason to do that was to
reduce the likelihood of runtime PM getting in the way of system-wide
PM processing, but now it is mostly an optimization because (1) runtime
suspend of devices is prevented by bumping up their runtime PM usage
counters in device_prepare() and (2) device drivers are expected to
disable runtime PM for the devices handled by them before they embark
on system-wide PM activities that may change the state of the hardware
or otherwise interfere with runtime PM.  However, it prevents
asynchronous runtime resume of devices from working during system-wide
PM transitions, which is confusing because synchronous runtime resume
is not prevented at the same time, and it also sometimes turns out to
be problematic.

For example, it has been reported that blk_queue_enter() may deadlock
during a system suspend transition because of the pm_request_resume()
usage in it [1].  It may also deadlock during a system resume transition
in a similar way.  That happens because the asynchronous runtime resume
of the given device is not processed due to the freezing of the runtime
PM workqueue.  While it may be better to address this particular issue
in the block layer, the very presence of it means that similar problems
may be expected to occur elsewhere.

For this reason, remove the WQ_FREEZABLE flag from the runtime PM
workqueue and make device_suspend_late() use the generic variant of
pm_runtime_disable() that will carry out runtime PM of the device
synchronously if there is pending resume work for it.

Also update the comment before the pm_runtime_disable() call in
device_suspend_late(), to document the fact that the runtime PM
should not be expected to work for the device until the end of
device_resume_early(), and update the related documentation.

This change may, even though it is not expected to, uncover some
latent issues related to queuing up asynchronous runtime resume
work items during system suspend or hibernation.  However, they
should be limited to the interference between runtime resume and
system-wide PM callbacks in the cases when device drivers start
to handle system-wide PM before disabling runtime PM as described
above.
