It would be okay to wait until after the last prepare() method is
called.  I don't know if it makes any difference in the end, however.

Can we also have a DPM_PREPARING state, set when ->prepare() is about
to be called?  The PM core wouldn't make use of it but some drivers
would.  (I can't think of any use at all for the analogous
DPM_COMPLETING state, however.)

Clearer to say: if (dev->parent->power.status >= DPM_SUSPENDING) {

Log a warning here?  If this ever happened, it would be the sort of 
unexpected regression that people get all excited about.

Clearer to say: if (dev->power.status >= DPM_OFF) {

Note that if dev->power.status is equal to DPM_SUSPENDING then you 
don't want to call resume_device(), but you still do want to change 
dev->power.status to DPM_RESUMING so that new children can be 
registered.

A little problem here: You refer to dev after calling put_device().

This isn't the way I imagined doing it (your extra "list"), but it's 
fine.

Same problem with use-after-put.  Also present in dpm_prepare().

Use-after-put again.

Instead you could eliminate the list_splice_init() above and put here:

	list_splice(&list, dpm_list->prev);

This will move the entries from list to the end of dpm_list.

On the whole it looks quite good.
