What is preventing that atomic value from changing _right_ after you
just read this?

and very odd indentation, checkpatch didn't complain about this?

What commit does this fix?  Does it need to be backported to older
kernels?

Wait, how is your "noirq" device even getting called here?  Shouldn't
__device_suspend_noirq() be called instead?  Why isn't that the path for
your device?
