Just to make sure I understood: any value that our driver sets to this
register will persist after a suspend/resume cycle? That's not what I
was expecting. Usually after a suspend/resume cycle a lot of registers
are reset to their default value, so our driver needs to write them all
again.

Can you also confirm whether this is true during runtime PM?
