Hm, well.  I really don't think that ACPI or the core does it, but anyway
Zdenek, could you please apply the appended patch and see if it
produces any additional warnings?

If it doesn't, then probably one of the sysdevs does it in its ->resume()
routine, which also will be easy to check against.

Signle CPUed too.
