useconds do matter (syscall takes about 1us). But no matter, since 
Suspended message is only available on platforms that support persistent 
clock, so in those case (more devices than I can count) the messages we 
add here are all we get since they do not have a requirement to be 
supported by the persistent clock.

Post-mortem, armed with user space logs in CLOCK_REALTIME (a choice that 
most want on Android Logging) and kernel logs, these messages are 
_invaluable_ in order to merge the kernel activities with user space. At 
runtime they help too, as there is some post-mortem activities on user 
space logging daemon startup.

Android on hikey development board is running 4.9 kernel + Android 
patches (this is one of 'em), I _expect_ ToT will work. As for _real_ 
phones, you have to take that up with the vendors making the chips.
