It appeared right after enabling lockdep debugging on the continuous
integration system. So we do not have a history of it not being there.

Taking an another look at my code, it could indeed end up in double-
wait-looping scenario if suspend and initialization was performed
simultaneously (it had a couple of other bugs too, fixed in v2).
Strange thing is, I think that should have been caught by cpuhp_lock_*
lockdep tracking.

So I'll move the discussion to linux-pm list to change the CPUfreq code. Thanks for the comments.
