Shrug it off as an unstable test result. Both mine and Jesse's patch
really only change the logic we use to WARN about interrupt state. We
don't use pm._irqs_disabled for anything else at all.

Which means that black screen is at most a timing issue. Or the baseline
kernels don't perfectly match (the new warning in Jesse's patch is a bit
an indicator for that).
