Here's a completely new issue.  When using opportunistic suspends on an
SMP system, it could happen that the system gets a wakeup event and
this routine starts running again before the event's IRQ handler has
finished (or has enabled a suspend blocker).  The system would 
re-suspend too soon.

Is there anything in the PM core that waits until all outstanding IRQs 
have been handled before unfreezing processes?  If there is, I can't 
find it.  Should such a thing be added?
