I added a bit of tracing.

It looks like a fast button press typically shows about 120ms between 'press'
and 'release', though I have seen as low as 70ms.
When I don't have PM_DEBUG debugging on, the 'press' interrupt gets handled
in about 14ms.
So it seems likely that the times that I suffered from the problem and so
wrote the patch, I had PM_DEBUG enabled which slows resume down quite a lot.

So I cannot make a strong case for these patches.  However I think it is
safer to have them than not :-)

Thanks,
