Or the system wakes up. And all devices sleeping while the system wasn't
suspended wake up. Unless I am mistaken this way you can _increase_
power consumption if you suspend your system often enough, with enough
devices and long enough a timeout for autosuspend.
And remember, any DMA means no deep sleep states.
