Wow, laptop with so old wifi adapter has still a warranty. That good news,
you can ask vendor for fixing the problem :-)

I tried to reproduce on my laptop by suspend and removing power sources,
device initialize properly during boot.

I'm still wondering why we can break anything by power off during
suspend. Maybe there is some BIOS facility that power off PCIe device
or bridge during suspend, and now it in powered off state. Hard to tell,
except mentioned in other email pci* boot parameter try to change PCIe
related BIOS settings if there are any.
