A number of other drivers have been adding in compatibility for wake sources
with Windows to match user expectations even with legacy interfaces.
For example i8042 enables keyboard wake when in s2idle mode.
So I think what's missing here is to guard this for only the scenarios that
matter.
Platforms from 20 years ago didn't support Modern Standby in Windows
nor s2idle in Linux. This is a very modern feature.
I think it needs a check for
If (acpi_gbl_FADT.flags & ACPI_FADT_LOW_POWER_S0)
This will narrow it down to just supporting this on platforms the last few
years and decrease the testing matrix.
Thanks,
