Normally, we will put it into D3_COLD (via _PS3).
If it is prevented to be put in D3_COLD,
- If D3_HOT is not marked as supported, we will keep it in D0
- otherwise, we advocate we put it into D3_HOT, but in fact, it is in D0.
The result is same, but with wrong name.
But there will be some real problem if we have something like CPU
governor. Because governor may choose D3_HOT for device.
But for PCI device, D3_HOT is supported for the device.
So the bus layer should combine the information from native power
state supported and ACPI power state supported to determine which
power states are supported? For example, for a PCI device, ACPI
advocates D0 and D3_COLD are supported, and PCI layer may advocate D0,
D3_HOT and D3_COLD are supported.
