In fact we do set SCI_EN directly in drivers/acpi/sleep.c in a couple of
places exactly because the hardware is _known_ to wrong things here.  So, we
don't really preserve it, _exactly_ because at least some pieces of hardware
out there don't follow the spec.  Including Macs, IIRC.

Bob, can you please verify if the Lin Ming's patch helps?

Everyone knows that debugging is twice as hard as writing a program
in the first place.  So if you're as clever as you can be when you write it,
how will you ever debug it? --- Brian Kernighan
