Midas DTSI clearly has bugs then.

It worked fine because regulator-off-in-suspend is noop for buck1 but
it is clearly wrong from logical point of view. Do you think that
memory should be off in Suspend to RAM?

If before your change number of resumed CPUs was 4, then you
apparently break some things.
