I don't follow, could you explain?

It stops the first resume by returning early, so only the second one
happens.

Ahh, and that will stop the second resume, rather than the previous
change to stop the first?

Don't we want to stop the first rather than the second?  Otherwise if
the port is runtime suspended at system suspend time ( maybe no drive
connected to it? ) then there is no sense in resuming it at system
resume time.
