As I said before (but that doesn't seem to reach the list, so I'm repeating),
this is to protect other tasks from reading an inconsistent value of
suspending_task in case they attempt to remove a device concurrently with
respect to us.

While this is not likely to happen right now, because of the freezer, it may
very well happen when the freezer is finally removed.

Something like the patch below, perhaps?  Again, untested, but compiled this
time. :-)

Thanks,
