[PATCH] xen/manage: Fix suspend error path



The device power management API has the following asymmetry:
* dpm_suspend_start() does not clean up on failure
  (it requires a call to dpm_resume_end())
* dpm_suspend_end() does clean up on failure
  (it does not require a call to dpm_resume_start())

The asymmetry was introduced by commit d8f3de0d2412 ("Suspend-related
patches for 2.6.27") in June 2008:  It removed a call to device_resume()
from device_suspend() (which was later renamed to dpm_suspend_start()).

When Xen began using the device power management API in May 2008 with
commit 0e91398f2a5d ("xen: implement save/restore"), the asymmetry did
not yet exist.  But since it was introduced, a call to dpm_resume_end()
is missing in the error path of dpm_suspend_start().  Fix it.

kexec suffered from the same issue ever since it began using the
device power management API in July 2008 with commit 89081d17f7bb
("kexec jump: save/restore device state").  It was fixed this year
by commit 996afb6efd1a ("kexec_core: Fix error code path in the
KEXEC_JUMP flow").  All other callers seem fine.
