Hmm... There should be checks for both, but the code seems to suggest otherwise.

The bus always gets suspended. The checks are to determine if state is saved or not. If it isn't, then a suspend/resume is treated as a removal/insertion.

For the asymmetric case, I guess that would do. But I still want to remove devices when the bus handler has no suspend handling.
