To the beginning of pmu_suspend() should be added:

         if (!pmu_fully_inited)
                 return;

This should prevent the pmu from being suspended while it hasn't been
initialized yet and so scrolling might be able to work again.

That's very strange. Something wrong with our device tree?
I'll see if I can try testing with my 1400 soon.
