Problem: This flag does not get cleared currently in the suspend or
resume path in the following cases:

* In case some driver's suspend routine returns an error.
* Successful s2idle case
* etc?

Why is this a problem: What happens is that the next suspend attempt
could fail even though the user did not enable the flag by writing to
/sys/power/wakeup_count. This is 1 use case how the issue can be seen
(but similar use case with driver suspend failure can be thought of):

1. Read /sys/power/wakeup_count
2. echo count > /sys/power/wakeup_count
3. echo freeze > /sys/power/wakeup_count
4. Let the system suspend, and wakeup the system using some wake source
   that calls pm_wakeup_event() e.g. power button or something.
5. Note that the combined wakeup count would be incremented due
   to the pm_wakeup_event() in the resume path.
6. After resuming the events_check_enabled flag is still set.

At this point if the user attempts to freeze again (without writing to
/sys/power/wakeup_count), the suspend would fail even though there has
been no wake event since the past resume.

What this patch does:

It moves the clearing of the flag to just before a resume is completed,
so that it is always cleared for the corner cases mentioned above.
