Below is a refined version that should address all of your comments. Please
have a look.
Thanks,

From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@xxxxxxx>
Modify the PM core to protect its data structures, specifically the
dpm_active list, from being corrupted if a child of the currently
suspending device is registered concurrently with its ->suspend()
callback. In that case, since the new device (the child) is added
to dpm_active after its parent, the PM core will attempt to
suspend it after the parent, which is wrong.
Introduce a new member of struct dev_pm_info, called 'sleeping',
and use it to check if the parent of the device being added to
dpm_active has been suspended, in which case the device registration
fails. Also, use 'sleeping' for checking if the ordering of devices
on dpm_active is correct.
Remove pm_sleep_rwsem which is not necessary any more.
Special thanks to Alan Stern for discussions and suggestions that
lead to the creation of this patch.

The policy is that the device tree should match hardware bus topology.
(Or at least the control bus, for devices which use multiple busses.)
+In particular, this means that a device registration may fail if the parent of
