I was digging through commits for suspend-related changes. Rafael, is
there any chance that some change to suspend is responsible for this
regression? This commit for example is a vague possibility;
c6f37f12197ac3bd2e5a35f2f0e195ae63d437de: PM/Suspend: Do not shrink memory before suspend

I say vague because FREE_PAGE_NUMBER is so small.

Also, what was the behaviour of the e100 driver when suspending before
this commit?
