Thanks, this is exactly what I wanted to see in the changelog!
It's rather a regression, and it should be clearly mentioned.

Now about your fix: the problem is not about setting the correct
state at suspending.  It is suspended, so setting the right state
there is the correct behavior.  However, the counterpart, the resume,
is the culprit of this bug.  It misses the restore of the shadow
state.

Does the patch below work instead?
