The framework is generic for the PCI devices hence, there may not be any hypervisor at all. Hence restore operation to trigger on DRIVER_OK setting, when previously suspended.

Since we already agree in previous email that re-read until device sets the DRIVER_OK, its fine to me. It covers the above restore condition.
