I have dropped it for now, but we need to address the underlying issue.

OK

Probably.

Likely a device that wasn't resumed before resumes now and that causes
the issue to appear.

I'm wondering if adding the ignore_children check to the patch helps.
If not, there clearly is a resume ordering issue that is papered over
by the current code.
