That's not a good way of describing it, since a fully running system won't
get any wakeup or resume events.  However...  If you have a running system
with a selectively suspended device, and the device sends a resume request
and consequently is resumed, and then a second later the entire system
goes to sleep -- the net effect is the same as if the resume request had
never been received.
