I would drop this from the regression list.

Yes, bz 217321 is a bug, and yes, 4ff116d0d5fd is a partial fix for
it, but 4ff116d0d5fd causes worse problems (it breaks resume from
suspend) than just living with bz 217321, which is a "mere" power
consumption issue.

I updated bz 217321 to drop the "regression" label there.
