This is an old suspend/resume lockup fix:

	    [ACPI] Fix suspend/resume lockup issue
	    by leaving Bus Master Arbitration enabled.
	    The ACPI spec mandates it be disabled only for C3.

The bug snuck back in in commit 2feec47d4c5f (ACPICA: ACPI 5: Support
for new FADT SleepStatus, SleepControl registers, 2012-02-14),
presumably by copy/pasting a copy of the code without that fix for the
legacy case.

On affected machines, after that commit, the machine locks up hard on
resume from suspend.  The same fix as seven years ago still works.

Applied to the linux-next branch of the linux-pm.git tree.

I think I'll push it for v3.6, since the bug is serious and is a regression.

Bob, I think we should incorporate this into ACPICA, shouldn't we?

This bug affects since 3.4. I'd like to ask for this to be applied in the
stable branches too, considering Jonathan's comments that this is a replay
of an old and proven fix.

(I don't know if 3.3 is affected too. I know 3.2 is not affected by this.)

Thanks.
