Note that we do have suspend/resume support on R-Car Gen2, albeit some
drivers may lack code to save/restore state when their devices are powered
down, as R-Car Gen2 doesn't have power domains for devices.

So I'd expect everything to work fine, as long as no R-Car Gen3-specific
drivers or devices residing in multimedia power domains are involved.

In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
