The bug is present since first days of bcma. That's why I even decided
to add stable to CC.

Personally I've tested that only on 1 machine (I don't have more
suspendable machines with mini PCIe slot). However all Macbook 8.1/8.2
users have to remove b43 & bcma before suspending [0], they complain
about that since ever.

Arend: I know you're also complaining for suspend in bcma. Can you
comment on this?
