I wonder what does the suspend/resume code break? Currently, all 
non-whitelisted cards are broken (not working after resume).

The problem with adding cards to the whitelist is that Terratec DMX has 
generic subsystem ID:
ESS Technology ES1978 Maestro 2E [125d:1978] (rev 10)
Subsystem: ESS Technology ES1978 Maestro 2E [125d:1978]

Adding this to the whitelist does not look like a good idea...
