The request will be dropped silently , So, it sounds ugly.
At least, you need to put some warning here.
The long-term solution is to fix the invoker to NOT ask
kacpid to invoke AML methods during suspend-resume period.

There is race condition here.
Probably, it should be :
acpi_in_suspend = TURE;
acpi_os_wait_events_complete(NULL);

If you fixed kacpid, then this part could be removed.

Could it cause trouble to caller?
