Not at the moment.  I don't think this failure is related to the runtime PM code,
though.

Can you boot with initcall_debug and try to suspend, please?  That should tell
us what device this actually happens to.

I don't even think it's necessary to suspend, it should be sufficient to do 

# echo devices > /sys/power/pm_test
# echo mem > /sys/power/state

Let's see if that reproduces the problem.
