No. The fbdev initialization is guaranteed to have finished before
suspend. So "we want to freeze the async task" is wrong thinking.
There is no async task to freeze.
Please read the commit message of a7442b93cf32 ("drm/i915: Fix races
on fbdev"):
"a device is never suspended until its ->probe callback (and all
asynchronous tasks it scheduled) have finished. See dpm_prepare(),
which calls wait_for_device_probe(), which calls async_synchronize_full()."
Best regards,
