This hunk here is the wrong thing to do: If we're suspended and the
hangcheck fires, we'll just delay it. But if we keep on being suspended
the hangcheck will fire at the normal recheck rate (but never do anything)
which wreaks utter havoc with deep sleep residency. The simples solution
would be to synchronously cancel the timer in the idle work (where we
already put the execbuf runtime ref) I think.

I've dropped this hunk from the patch when merging.
