Yes, that's fine with me. I will try to come up with some documentation
that clearly documents this, so people know that their machine (some
desktop mobo with $VENDOR graphics card) will probably not make it into
s2ram whitelist, but they can whitelist it via HAL. It also makes it
easier for me to say "machine does resume from within X is no reason to
put it into s2ram whitelist, go for the HAL whitelist instead" :-)

We can probably even extract those from the fdi-files, we just skip those
with "advanced" matching rules.
