Tony and Marc - thank you for your insights.

I have learned from Dave Gerlach that the occurance of suspend failures
on the downstream TI 5.4 kernel was only 1 in 10,000 prior to his
downstream patches.

I have now done 33,175 cycles of suspend/resume with rtcwake and no
failures have occurred. Thus, I have to conclude that mainline does not
exhibit the problem of late timer interrupts causing suspend to fail.

Thanks,
Drew
