Hmm, but here what we are talking about is if notification is always sent to the device
which invokes wakeup event.
I pointed out this isn't true because BIOS might sent notification to a pci bridge and
OS should scan devices under the bridge to check which devices invokes it by looking at
PME state. Looks you are talking about other things.
