I agree that not entering s0ix is a critical failure, but this is a hardware
suspend failure. How we treat this should be akin to how we treat failure to
enter S3 or deeper. S0ix support is indicated by the S0 Low Power Idle bit in
the ACPI FADT table. It's better IMO to create some framework in the suspend or
ACPI core that allows platforms to report whether they have achieved the
hardware state indicated by having this bit set. Rafael, your thoughts?
