It would be good to narrow down the failure to a particular
transition, for example.

In particular, if that happens during the dpm_noirq_resume_devices()
called from s2idle_loop(), it may be necessary to also skip
pci_pm_default_resume_early() for the devices with skip_bus_pm set.

How many devices on the affected system end up with skip_bus_pm set,
for that matter?
