To be honest, I don't like this patch.

The correct solution is to get a SIGNAL "resumed()", which is caught by the 
dataengines and which then just updates. The polling and retrying in 
timeengine.cpp is really ugly, IMO. (No offense ;)) I want this fixed in Solid 
to get a reliable signal that we're resumed now.

Your patch doesn't take hibernation into account, btw, which has the exact same 
problem. Also starting two second polling for two minutes when the user hits 
suspend looks like draining the battery unnecessarily (CPU wakeups), which is 
exactly not what you want on machines where suspend/resume is critical.

Thanks a lot for looking into this (admittedly very annoying) problem, but I 
think that this is just a workaround for something that is important enough to 
be fixed in the right way.

    it's clock skew

    This is problematic. You cannot assume that we resumed already, since the 
job in 808 is async. Suspension can still happen at this point.
