No no... This part is wrong. We only set suspend_timing_needed if we
*didn't* calculate the suspend time in timekeeping_resume.

You have to invert all the boolean logic for it to be equivalent.

So, I think with the logic bug above it will work out properly, but
let me know if I'm still missing something.
