On an Advantech MICA-071 tablet, with a builtin barcode scanner connected to ttyS0, the following message is shown on suspend: serial 00:02: disabled And after suspend/resume trying to use the barcode scanner / ttyS0 shows: serial 00:02: LSR safety check engaged! Indicating that the UARTs io-ports are no longer reachable. This is caused by __pnp_bus_suspend() calling pnp_stop_dev() on the "00:02" pnp device on suspend (this outputs the disabled message). The problem is that pnp_can_write() returns false for the "00:02" pnp device, so after disabling it (disabling its decoding of IO addresses) during suspend, it cannot be re-enabled. Add a pnp_can_write() check to the suspend path and only disable devices which can actually be re-enabled on resume. This fixes the Advantech MICA-071's ttyS0 no longer working after a suspend/resume.
