It should not start any transfer when system goes suspend (and
terminates on going ones). It might be that not all drivers currently
implement the described work flow.

PM runtime is an overkill here because it's not exactly turning power
rail off on the device, though reference counting would makes sense.

I will think how to test this. Meanwhile do you think it's a show
