I think it is important to change q->rpm_status into RPM_SUSPENDING before blk_queue_enter() calls blk_queue_pm_only(). Otherwise it could happen that blk_queue_enter() calls blk_pm_request_resume() while q->rpm_status == RPM_ACTIVE, resulting in blk_queue_enter() not resuming a queue although that queue should be resumed.
