You don't need to use the wakeup_pending argument at all. I think you
shouldn't use it even, because in theory there may be a wakeup event after
you've called pm_wakeup_pending() in suspend_enter() and in that case
you should break the loop too.

So I would simply call pm_wakeup_pending() here again.
