Agree, this should cover most of the cases, however there are some
cases where final_count may not match initial_count here

A couple of such scenario I came across is
1) when tasks are restarted again due to suspend failure, sometimes
battery kernel thread acquires lock for battery monitoring resulting
in either pm_get_wakeup_count() returning false or increment in
final_count from initial_count
2) In some platforms, power transitions are carried from User space
(power manager), these power-manager tries to hold some wake lock
after being restarted on resume

It seems to me that we can identify the error in suspend through
return values earlier and may not need to go ahead and check
final_count to catch the same later
