In arch/x86/kerne/apm_32.c there is the suspend() function - question
is why immediately after calling save_processor_state() it will call
restore_processor_state()?

It won't -- the system enters suspend mode in the set_system_power_state() call that's inbetween and returning from that function (that is, from the APM BIOS function it ends up calling) means we've woken up again.
