This is a concerning quirk. We use the simple suspend when HMB is
enabled because at least some platforms disable device DMA access in the
runtime suspend state. Many devices continue to access their HMB while
in low power, so we can't let both conditions occur concurrently.
Unless you know for sure this device doesn't access host memory in
low-power, there will be at least some platform combinations where this
quirk will fail.
