High battery drain (s0ix, Ryzen 5900HS)

@superm1

reference: #1652 (comment 1627649)

Brief summary of the problem:

With the recent kernels (I'm on 6.0.6) suspend seems pretty unstable with s0ix.

Sometimes it suspends fine and the battery loses about 1% per hour.

Sometimes it loses about 10% per hour.

My first test: 1PM - 2PM resulted in about 14% -> 13% battery

Second test: 2PM - 5PM resulted in a dead dry machine with 0%

I'm not sure how to debug as the last log entry was PM: suspend entry (s2idle).

I also can't tell since when this regression appeared. It's my spare machine and I rarely use it.

hint: the platform should be the same as in the issue linked above. The screen and dedicated GPU option might be different. But it's also a 2021 G14 (GA401QM in this case).
