This disparity appeared deliberately in 4547be78. If you need
no_console_suspend and the hardware lets the device in an undefined
state after resume (i. e. PXA270), you need to call subset of the
resume, even if the suspend counterpart was not called. Yes, I can
imagine that it may be a source of problems.

Did you try the latest patches from Jason Wang from linux-serial list?

It seems that support for no_console_suspend for all devices is becoming
more complicated. I guess that a new driver calls (maybe "save_state"
and "resume_state") or support for no_console_suspend directly in
drivers may be useful.
