So, this happens while pending_events is set right? I need to review
this runtime suspend flow next week. Something doesn't look right. When
there's a suspend/resume runtime or not, there's a soft disconnect. We
shouldn't be processing any event prior to going into suspend. Also, we
shouldn't be doing soft-disconnect while connected and in operation
unless we specifically tell it to.

Ok.
