Subject: NVME regression in all kernels after 4.4.x for NVME in M2 slot for
 laptop?

I've been stuck on 4.4.x for a while (currently 4.4.5) because any
subsequent kernel would fail to suspend or resume (S3 sleep) on my
Thinkpad P70.

Due to lack of time, I only got around to doing a git bisect now
(sorry), and did it between 4.4.0 and 4.5.0
It's my first bisect, but I hope I did it right outside of the fact that
my kernel wasn't exactly the same each time due to having my .config
file change depending on which kernel I ended up on.

However, the patch found by bisect makes sense that it would be a good
culprit.
I use an NVME 512GB SSD in my laptop, and I guess very few people use those
which could be why I'm the first/only person to report this.

Sadly because NVME changed a lot between 4.4 and 4.5 and I'm not a
kernel hacker, I can't just reverse apply the patch to 4.5 and see if it
works because I'd have to unroll a bunch of other changes too, and
that's a bit beyond my expertise and time at hand right now.

Would this patch make sense as being the reason why I can't S3 sleep
anymore and would you have a test patch against 4.5, 4.6, or 4.7 I can
try to see if it fixes the problem?
Symptom is that my red LED (the dot for in in thinkpad on the back
cover) goes flashing in weird ways when I shut the lid, but not always
the same pattern, however none are the normal on/off gentle pulsing that
indicate proper S3 sleep.
The caps lock key LED also flashes rapidly when I open the lid and the
laptop is stone dead at this point.
