I don't think so. Unless a driver feels it necessary to take some
action, no suspend/resume
will not cause the whole system to fail. However,

1) if any driver suspend code returns error, the whole procedure will stop
2) and instable wake-up source (like glitch on wake-up GPIO pin) or
incorrect setting (like
wake up from RTC but set the interval to be 0) will also cause the
immediate resume

check "sa11x0_suspend" print out won't work since the console has already been
suspended, try DISABLE_CONSOLE_SUSPEND or other ways
