It is starting to look like that MITIGATION_IBRS_ENTRY is causing my
problems. If I enable MITIGATION_IBRS_ENTRY I see the suspend stall
relatively quickly. And then I disable the config I have not been able
to reproduce the problem so far. But as this issue happens randomly I
want to do some more tests to be sure.
