David,

I understand and appreciate your advice, thanks.

However, please consider that I'm not a kernel developer, so I don't
understand much or anything about how this driver works internally,
this is why I came here to report about problem in the first place.

All I can tell you for certain is that this change makes my
suspend/resume work and it doesn't hang anymore while resuming from
suspend.

I apologize for the empty commit message and for not being able to
explain things deeper, but Pavel Machek is the person who suggested I
make this change in the code, so maybe he can provide some help?

Diego
