okay so listen closely, because this part is not a vibe to mess up: Do NOT call any SDL_GPU functions after calling this function! Like, none. Not even a lil one. 🙈

This must also be called before calling SDL_GDKSuspendComplete. The order is giving very much “do this first, then that,” and you're gonna respect it. 💅
