Standard Linux systems don't need these, because the scheduler just keeps the system running as long as there is work to be done. Suspend-blocks are only needed because patch 1's opportunistic suspend governor tries to suspend the system even when the scheduler indicates that there is work to be done. That decision requires all kinds of hacks throughout the codebase [1][2]. - Paul 1.
