2.0 and later wants us to put devices into low power states before calling
_PTS, ACPI 1.0x wants us to do that after calling _PTS. Since we're following
the 2.0 and later specifications right now, we're not doing the right thing for
the (strictly) ACPI 1.0x-compliant systems.
We ought to be able to fix things on the high level, by calling _PTS earlier on
systems that claim to be ACPI 1.0x-compliant. That will require us to modify
the generic susped code quite a bit and will need to be tested for some time.
Yes, I am.
And does Windows really do that?
I don't know.
