Hi Andy:

I know what you worry, and I also know this possibility.
I try to test some thing in u-boot, because I can change GPIO setting in U-boot. I remove B1701 (GSM power path) and the GSM does not have any power source .I set GPIO( TX, RX,CTS,RTS,INT0,IO1) to input mode. I still found VBAT ( GSM power) have 1.0Voltage. I check all GSM's pins connect to any chip (S3C2442,Audio Codec, download buffer).I start measuring these pins and I found the RX has 1.8V voltage.
It is more than VBAT. Therefore, I just assume the RX is the source and I set these GPIO to low. The VBAT change to 0.001 V.
I don't sure it is right.
I already request Matt give me a suspend image to test it and I will check it again in suspend mode.
Thanks for you point it.
Best Wishes~
