If the user forcibly puts the device into suspend, it's very much like powering
off.  The kernel shouldn't prevent that from happening unless in error
conditions.

If incoming calls are supposed to wake up the system, then there are two
possibilities:
- the already started suspend sequence may be aborted and the system may be put
  into the low power state,
- the system may be suspended and then immediately woken up.

Thanks,
