If you think it's possible to make this work then feel free to. But at 
the point where you're adding code to every driver's suspend function to 
determine whether or not it's got any pending events that userspace 
hasn't consumed yet, and adding code to every bit of userspace to allow 
it to indicate whether or not it's busy consuming events or just busy 
drawing 3D bouncing cattle, I think you've reinvented suspend blocks.
