Please clarify why this is not correct.

Does the above change make it impossible to bring a suspended device
back to the RPM_ACTIVE state if the BLK_MQ_REQ_NOWAIT flag is set?

Does the above change, especially the " && q->rpm_status !=
RPM_SUSPENDED" part, make it impossible to bring a suspended device back
to the RPM_ACTIVE state?
