Let's wait a bit for other opinions.  We may add rather a new flag
instead of introducing a new state, too, for example.

Also, I'm not sure about any side-effect to drivers that expect the
pause only during the running state.  We might need some check for a
capability flag?

In anyway, the timing is bad; it's too late for 5.10 to apply such a
core change.  Can we postpone this for 5.11?
