I think rajendra also mentioned adding one in suspend path too
when it fails.
" Also throw one when a suspend fails, saying bootloader
*could be* a possible cause specifying the right version to be used."

I find Rajendra's suggestion reasonable because some one might
just miss the boot message but getting the message on failure
case cant' be missed.
