Thanks Alex.
I will rename the variable and update the comment.

Even after adding this patch, the runtime suspend will not be supported
for the device with users. It will be supported only after patch 4 in
this patch series. So with this patch, the pm-suspend can be called only
for the cases where vfio device has no user and there we should not see
the race condition.

But I can move the patch related with pm-get/put wrappers on
ioctls before this patch since both are independent.

Regards,
Abhishek
