Otherwise, there is potential for both DMF_SUSPENDED* and DMF_NOFLUSH_SUSPENDING to not be set during dm_suspend() -- which is definitely _not_ a valid state. This fix, in conjuction with "dm rq: fix the starting and stopping of blk-mq queues", addresses the potential for request-based DM multipath's __multipath_map() to see !dm_noflush_suspending() during suspend.
