Yes, the runtime status may be changed just after the check.

For this issue, usb port is in the RPM_SUSPENDING state when
pm_request_resume() is called. The deferred_resume will be set to true
during this procedure and trigger resume after finishing suspend. USB
port runtime resume callback will turn on its power resource again and
the work of acpi_power_resume_dependent() is scheduled. Because the usb
port's usage count remains zero, it's to be suspended soon. When
pm_request_resume() of acpi_power_resume_dependent() is called, the usb
port is always in the PRM_SUSPENDING. Fall in the loop of suspend and
resume.

How about running acpi_power_dependent when turning on power resource
rather than scheduling a work to run it? After this,
pm_request_resume() can check device's right status just after turning
on power resource. Furthermore, pm_request_resume() is async resume and
this change will not consume much time.
