I agree, this isn't good.  Even if it's safe (and I don't think that
second spot is safe), it's too hard to analyze.  I'm going to drop
this for now.

Jarkko, I assume a9c8088c7988 ("i2c: i801: Don't restore config
registers on runtime PM"), which you reference as "Fixes:" is what
causes the regression.  If you can update the changelog so it mentions
the regression, why it happens, and why this patch fixes it, we'll be
in a better spot to backport it to stable kernels.
