It's the dsi_bus_lock mechanism. But it doesn't work as such for RFBI,
because the DSI uses a bit different mechanism for updates. But somehow
the suspend function needs to wait until the transfer has been
completed, and suspend only after that (and also make sure that no new
transfer starts before the suspend).
