If I understand what you are suggesting, I should setup some kinda of timer callback to later call suspend, but that seems pointless for me if we have the autosuspend mechanism in place.

Won't I end up racing my timer against other pm stuff? I'm not really runtime pm expert so maybe I'm just missing something.
