    Can you give actual examples of real life situations?

    Because quite frankly, it sounds less and less likely for any relevant
    hardware. It's a non-issue for MSI, for example. And it's a non-issue for
    any sane interrupt source I can think of.

    In other words, I've heard that claim before - and I just don't believe
    it. I've never heard a realistic explanation of why it would happen for a
    normal PCI driver. And I still claim that it's a very odd and special case
    if it does.

    And btw, I'm talking suspend, not hibernate.
