You misunderstood (maybe the comment needs to be clarified as above). If prepare() returns any error (including -EAGAIN) then complete() does not get called. If prepare() returns successfully but the PM core detects that a new child was added while prepare() was running, then we call complete(), suspend the child, and call prepare() again. > > + * @suspend: Executed before putting the system into a sleep state in which the > > + * contents of main memory are preserved.

It's one of those weird corner cases where either alternative is acceptable.
