Until https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=68c1b3dd5c48b2323067f8c1f0649ae2f31ab20b
which will have hit mainline in 6.0, the driver had no suspend / resume support.

That patch introduced an i2c write to put the chip into a low power mode.
My best guess for a cause would be that something else is incorrectly being disabled
before this call and hence breaking the i2c comms.
