No, I'm using the wm9705 driver.

Not true - the codec appears as /sys/devices/0-0:WM9705 rather than a
sub-device of the AC97 controller.  Below this there are two sub-devices:

/sys/devices/0-0:WM9705/wm97xx-battery
/sys/devices/0-0:WM9705/wm97xx-touch

The wm97xx-ts touchscreen driver binds to the 0-0:WM9705 device, so
clearly unless 0-0:WM9705 is a child of the AC97 controller, things
aren't going to be guaranteed to be resumed in the right order.
