The leading other brand OS appears to clear the WAK_STS flag on resume.                                                                                                                                
When rebooted, certain BIOSes assume that the system is actually                                                                                                                                       
resuming if it's still set and so fail to reboot correctly. Make sure                                                                                                                                  
that it's cleared at resume time.
