The current implementation of pca954x_init() rewrites content of data->last_chan
which is then populated into the mux select register. Skip this part, so that the
mux is populated with content of data->last_chan as it was set before suspend.
This way, the mux state is retained across suspend/resume cycle.

Isn't it better to keep the hardware in the same state it was before it 
entered suspend ? For me, that's the behavior I would expect from 
suspend/resume .

If the write fails here, the hardware is in undefined state anyway .
Either the next attempt to flip the switch would help bring it back, or, 
the system is in undefined state.

Ok, in either case the current behavior isn't a bug. Please drop
the Fixes-tag.

Being in an undefined state with last_chan being zero is better than
being in an undefined state with last_chan holding some other value,
so that writing the register isn't skipped in the following call to
pca954x_select_chan(). This is the whole point of clearing last_chan
on error. Notice how pca954x_select_chan() also clears last_chan on
error.

OK, then just drop this patch.
