Apologies for my delayed response on this. 

With reference to https://lwn.net/Articles/505683/ :-
1. "suspend() should leave the device in a quiescent state." We invoke
drm_mode_config_helper_suspend() which deactivates the crtc. I
understand that this is the quiescent state.

2. "suspend_late() can often be the same as runtime_suspend()."  We
invoke runtime suspend/resume calls in late/early hooks.
