Hi Thomas,

Thanks you very much for your time and reply.

Yeah, missed completely the fact that the issue can also come where only
clocksource is RTC.

This will prevent first sleep failure.

This will prevent further extra sleeptime injection if sleep fails
(valid for RTC only).
Looks good!

I did not get the exact valid point of moving it from
`timekeeping_suspend` to `timekeeping_resume`.
Although it will not have any side effect.

Thanks for the change;  will check and update.

Cheers,
Mukesh
