I'm not sure whether this works or not.

>From ACPI spec,

_PS3 "is used to put the specific device into its D3hot or D3 state"

D3 neither means D3hot nor D3cold. It's an old term before D3hot and
D3cold were introduced.

Another problem:

With your patch, both D3hot and D3cold will evaluate _PS3, right?

Will it have problem on AMD platform if you try to put ODD into D3hot
state? _PS3 is evaluated, so it actually enters D3Cold state.

Thanks,
