Well, is there any reason to have 'set_sci_en_on_resume' at all then?

I mean, the only reason for that config thing in the first place is that 
we didn't do this from the beginning. No?

And I'd hate to then carry the DMI table along forever just to set a 
variable that isn't worth setting any more..

IOW, I don't disagree with the patch. I just don't think it went far 
enough.
