Honestly, replicating the exact same systemd scripts you mention to get suspend
working on runit did not work for me.

Looking online I found other users experiencing the same exact problem when
enabling NVreg_PreserveVideoMemoryAllocations=1 even on systemd distros using
the exact same setup.

Back to debugging I guess.
