What's the reason for this change? This loses all the automatic
detection we have. I would hope that we could keep the existing
detection capability and use the module parameter to override the
detection logic or something like that.

The driver should be as automatic as possible and the suspend_mode
module parameter should be used to override something.

So the function now has a loop. To me that sounds very confusing and
error prone. What's the reason for this?
