== SRU Justification ==
A class of new machines from Lenovo (such as the U300) and some ASUS laptops
are hanging on suspend.
== Fix ==
This patch is already an upstream fix that makes
acpi_pm_device_sleep_state() conform to the ACPI specification.
== Impact ==
Machines like Lenovo U300 and some ASUS laptops fail to suspend. The only
viable workaround is xHCI bind/unbind hack which is really ugly and can
potentially lose data with connected devices.
== Test Case ==
Simply suspend the laptop, without the fix it will just hang on suspend.
This has been tested on a Lenovo U300 and also sanity checked on a
Lenovo X220i (which didn't have the bug) to check it doesn't cause problems
on hardware without this bug.
