Just to make it clear: you mean runtime suspend, not resume suspend, or?

I have seen this flag but decided against it. One reason is because it
is marked as "PM core only". The other reason is that it doesn't know
about the adapter lock. It might get set while a transfer is on going.
Or even right after the suggested if-block above. The code from this
series gets the mutex first which ensures that on going transfers are
completed and no new ones are started in parallel.

Unless I am totally overlooking something...

Thanks,
