I have noticed a suspend regression on some of our Tegra boards recently with v6.4-rc and interestingly bisect is pointing to this commit. I was unable revert this on top of the latest mainline but if I checkout this commit suspend fails and if I checkout the previous commit is passes.

Enabling more debug I was able to capture the following crash log I see on one of the boards ...
