Ok, so far I've not been able to reproduce anything like this with my
atom x86_64 system (done a number of suspends both with and without RTC
alarms queued to wake the system up). Can you provide any more details
about how you're triggering suspend when you see the problem?
Do you have an RTC alarm set for some future time to wake up the system?
I'm just trying to understand when rtc_alarm_disable is being called and
causing the trouble in your case.

The original related issue with the earlier version of this patch was
some hardware would wake up immediately after suspend if the rtc was set
in the past (which is what was done to "disable" the alarm). I suspect
there is a similar hardware quirk we're dealing with that may require
extra logic in the rtc-cmos.c alarm_irq_enable() function.

thanks
