No, it won't, because the devices' semaphores are unlocked by
unregister_dropped_devices() before calling device_unregister().
BTW, below is a simplified version of the patch, without the mutex protecting
suspending_task. I'd like to push it upstream if it looks good.
Please also have a look at http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10030.
There seems to be another issue related to us holding devices' semaphores.
Namely, it looks like, when the user removes the card, a concurrent thread
(from a workqueue) calls device_del() and blocks on the dev->sem held by
us and then something else deadlocks with this thread. I'll be looking into
this tomorrow.
Thanks,
Rafael
