As you might guess. That patch has caused me enough headaches that
reverting it sounds like a good idea now. But, I'd still like to better
understand exactly what's going on.

If reverting the patch fixes your problem, can you isolate down to which
part of that patch causes the problem? IOW, can you fix your problem if
you undo just the hunk added in runtime_suspend or undo just the moved
hunk runtime_resume? Or is reverting both required?
I suspect the added runtime_suspend hunk is causing the problems, so can
you see if just undoing that part works[1]. If that works, I will give
a bit more of a thinking on it tomorrow.
Thanks for reporting the problem! Bug reports like this that have
clearly been thoroughly researched and bisected are greatly appreciated!
