What does the "reboot" swsusp mean?

I am having this (or a similar problem):

	echo shutdown > /sys/power/disk; echo disk > /sys/power/state

suspends normally.  But after a resume, the moon keeps blinking _and_
I don't get ACPI events anymore.  At least all ibm-acpi features refuse
to work (hotkeys, lcd-brightness, lid, ...).

I saved some /proc files (interrupts, acpi/processor/power, ...) and
compared them before the suspend and after the resume but I could not
find any differences.

What is platform_prepare() actually good for when _resuming_? I tried to
follow the function calls and it seems to disable a lot of thing instead
of re-enabling them...?
