Hi, it is not a new quirk but another device. For me the real question
is: Why is NVME_QUIRK_SIMPLE_SUSPEND apparently used for nearly all
NVMes. This is no longer a quirk, but rather the new default.

For some device combinations, it just works better without this quirk.
That's why I set NVME_QUIRK_FORCE_NO_SIMPLE_SUSPEND.

Best regards,
Georg
