Hi!
Crazy idea... could we kill hibernate_ops-like struct, and just create
a device for ACPI, using its suspend()/resume()/whatever callbacks to
do the ACPI magic?

sysdev .suspend() method would do the trick.

sysdev .resume() should do the trick.

This one is tricky. It is essentially
powerdown_but_enter_S4_instead. I guess we can live with if()... as we
need to special-case reboot in the same place.

platform (?) device .resume() method should work.
