It is better to rely on the official documentation rather than the
implementation. Luckily, Documentation/power/pci.txt supports the claim:

    2.4.1. System Suspend

    When the system is going into a sleep state in which the contents of memory will
    be preserved, such as one of the ACPI sleep states S1-S3, the phases are:

        prepare, suspend, suspend_noirq.
    [..]
    The pci_pm_prepare() routine first puts the device into the "fully functional"
    state with the help of pm_runtime_resume(). [..]

So indeed we can be sure that the device is runtime-resumed before
suspend. System resume is not documented explicitly, but it seems
reasonable that the device is not runtime-suspended between system
suspend and resume.
