.. but there really is some semantic issue going on here. I'm not the
only one for whom suspend/resume simply does not work with MCE
enabled, and that "not work" coincides with the switch-over from
sysdev to struct device.

I suspect it is some subtle difference in sysdev_unregister() vs
device_unregister(). The message change is just a symptom of the fact
that we go through different paths.

For me MCE hangs only on the *second* suspend, but it sounds like
others see it on the first one.
