Well, you wouldn't want it doing DMA to unknown memory areas while you're trying to place the image data in those same areas, would you? And when the image is reactivated, you wouldn't want the device generating interrupt requests while its driver still thinks it is suspended. (Or if it doesn't even have a driver in the image.) And don't say that no resume device would ever do DMA or generate IRQs while it was idle! What if it was a remote disk accessible via a network interface?
