So it looks like we need this sequence:

enable_nonboot_cpus() /* INIT */
finish()	/* _WAK */
device_resume()
Can somebody remind me about this immediately after 2.6.19?
Remind. But note that freezer is not yet SMP safe... Rafael is working
on that.
Thanks.

On the other hand, I really wonder (and suspect) whether the problem isn't really the freezer or even the kernel resume ordering, but simply an ACPI internal resume ordering thing.

Doesn't ACPI have per-device "WAK" calls anyway? Shouldn't we just call those _individually_ as we walk the device tree (perhaps in the "early_resume" stage) rather than calling them all in one chunk?

_WAK method is system-wide. Individual objects do not have their own resume methods. One way of reordering internal ACPI resume is done in patch series to 7122, I mentioned that earlier.
It's possible to resume ACPI devices after execution of _WAK in pm->finish.

Does it solve the original problem where finish() was getting run after
device_resume(), and finish() was corrupting PCI register settings like
MSI?

No, only the case with ACPI devices... all other devices are untouched.
