PM: Allow pm_runtime_suspend() to succeed during system suspend
The dpm_prepare() function increments the runtime PM reference
counters of all devices to prevent pm_runtime_suspend() from
executing subsystem-level callbacks. However, this was supposed to
guard against a specific race condition that cannot happen, because
the power management workqueue is freezable, so pm_runtime_suspend()
can only be called synchronously during system suspend and we can
rely on subsystems and device drivers to avoid doing that
unnecessarily.
Make dpm_prepare() drop the runtime PM reference to each device
after making sure that runtime resume is not pending for it.
