Summary
PM: sleep: Fix possible deadlocks in core system-wide PM code
Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

PM: sleep: Fix possible deadlocks in core system-wide PM code

It is reported that in low-memory situations the system-wide resume core code deadlocks, because asyncscheduledev() executes its argument function synchronously if it cannot allocate memory (and not only in that case) and that function attempts to acquire a mutex that is already held. Executing the argument function synchronously from within dpmasyncfn() may also be problematic for ordering reasons (it may cause a consumer device's resume callback to be invoked before a requisite supplier device's one, for example).

Address this by changing the code in question to use asyncscheduledevnocall() for scheduling the asynchronous execution of device suspend and resume functions and to directly run them synchronously if asyncscheduledevnocall() returns false.
