Well, I think that just happens at the moment; the suspend is happening
from the xenstore watch thread, so there's no way it will even notice a
subsequent attempt until the suspend/resume cycle is done.

When we start triggering suspends from event channels, I'd suggest
something along the lines of wrapping the whole thing in a big fat
suspend mutex, and running the suspend from a workqueue triggered from
the interrupt or watch handler.  And then deal with all the edge cases.
