Yes, the ADVANCED_SYSASSERT was logged but there was no subsequent null pointer
dereference.

> If yes, please test the attached patch, which is supposed to fix the assert itself. With this, you are not even supposed to see an assert.

I ran this through 15 suspend/resume cycles with network traffic. The
ADVANCED_SYSASSERT did not occur, so it looks like the patch does fix
the SYSASSERT. There was a warning logged once out of the 15 cycles:

I think that this is probably a different bug though - checking previous
logs with journalctl, I see the same warning occurred once with
6.17.0-06871-gf79e772258df which predates the "remove STATUS_SUSPENDED"
commit.
