There is no advantage of freeing and re-allocating buffers through
suspend and resume. This waste cycles and makes suspend/resume time
longer. We also open ourselves to failed allocations in systems with
heavy memory fragmentation.

Hi Justin,

Do the resources allocated by bcmasp_alloc_buffers() need
to be released if an error occurs in bcmasp_open() below this line?
Yes good catch. Will send v3.

Thanks,
Justin
