Subject: [PATCH v2 06/10] PM: sleep: stats: Use locking in dpm_save_failed_dev()

From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@...el.com>

Because dpm_save_failed_dev() may be called simultaneously by multiple
failing device PM functions, the state of the suspend_stats fields
updated by it may become inconsistent.

Prevent that from happening by using a lock in dpm_save_failed_dev().
