OK, so I'm fine with leaving the patch as is for now but I would like Marek
review just to be sure we didn't miss something: Marek, any comments?
I just have one more comment below but it's only a detail.

I know this just just a detail but this chunk should not be included in
your patch since this is a cosmetic change and it has nothing to do with
the suspend/resume feature.
