The issue is that due to our sequencing suspend and resume using the
control heirachy rather than dependencies we attempt to suspend the I2C
controller prior to some devices that need it.  As we don't have a good
solution for this at the minute where it's an issue we've been avoiding
it by using the _noirq() suspend and resume functions for the controller
to reorder their suspend with respect to the rest of the system.  It's
not great but practically speaking it works.
