Thanks!

(I just want to fix the underlying problem in suspend, too. I guess
I'll just do something like

diff --git a/drivers/base/sys.c b/drivers/base/sys.c
index 8e13fd9..adb7850 100644

+++ b/drivers/base/sys.c

 					ret = drv->suspend(sysdev, state);

 		}
 	}

...to catch this kind of problems early).
