Yup, that's the solution as far as I know.  I know that in ChromeOS we
still have the extra call to the worker thread (despite the controller
waking up early), but that might be related to some other problem?

I was able to successfully suspend/resume multiple times once I woke
the i2c controller up earlier.

If you feel like adding Reviewed-by / Tested-by to my i2c patch then
feel free!  ;)

I probably would have left that in the patch, but I'm not objecting to
you taking it out.  :)
