Nope, just an error message.  Though I do worry that "random EC
transaction aborts during resume" could hit something important
somewhere, sometime.

I think I found the problem.  The "input buffer empty" wait depends on
"interrupt mode" to work properly, and we don't immediately enable the
interrupt on resume.  The wait should have a polling fallback anyway, to
be consistent with the other transaction waits.
