Yes, I tested this multiple times - if firmware loads and the init bails 
out, machine resume instantly, like this -

Right now, I have removed SUMO_uvd.bin and suspend resume is working 
without fail. Strange indeed, and I only noticed it when the machine did 
not instant resume when running with the UVD disable patch and no_uvd=1 
which skips uvd init just like firmware lodaing failure does I suppose.

Hopefully it is not that hard and we'll find a way! I will experiment the 
clocks and see how that goes.

Here is the lspci -nn output :
