SubjectRe: [PATCH] ACPI PM: Restore the 2.6.24 suspend ordering

I am the reporter from the original Novell Bug:
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=374217

I just tried current git head (two hours ago) with the patch (the one
from the beginning of this thread) from Rafael and without it. With the
patch my MacBook does suspend without it does not.
