Yeah, I noticed later on. Sorry for the misunderstanding.

Well, actually, "let the bios do the whole suspend" should be
implemented by a new PM_SUSPEND_FIRMWAREDISK mode that can be used
instead of "disk" and is invoked through pm_ops directly w/o hitting the
disk.c code. That would be the right way to invoke such a mode, however,
currently, no platforms even have such a mode as far as I can tell.
