This condition will never happen because the subdriver callback always
return 0 if !PMSG_IS_AUTO(message), so adding anything here is purely
for documentation purposes.  That is OK for me.  But I do not see any
point adding incomplete or wrong documentation. 

The above is incomplete because it ignores the failure and still return
an error. And it is wrong because we ignore an error we cannot possibly
handle in resume.  Only the subdriver can do that, which is why we must
delegate this to the subdriver.

I believe the correct here is to document the fact that we require the
subdriver->suspend() callback to always return 0 if !PMSG_IS_AUTO(message).
That is best done with a comment. No need to add any redundant code.
