Was this ever fixed? I see there was some kind of fix that was picked
up by regzbot but it looks like it was for a different issue caused by
the same original commit. I'm now on a different laptop, and hitting
the "Timeout waiting for hardware access (CSR_GP_CNTRL 0x08040008) ...
iwl_mvm_check_rt_status failed, device is gone during suspend" error
on every suspend/resume cycle (even if laptop remains plugged in while
suspended). I see it's also been reported elsewhere too, e.g.
https://www.reddit.com/r/debian/comments/1g7yook/iwlwifi_crashes_after_resume_from_s3_sleep_on/

I know the wifi is still functional after the error, but spamming the
kernel log with a stack trace and register dump seems excessive given
that the BIOS turning off power to the wifi when suspended seems
reasonably common.
