Do you think it is reasonable to add a new field to acpi_state.flags to
represent if we, as OSPM, have a way to put the device into a ACPI
device state? This field can be set once in acpi_bus_get_power_flags and
used afterwards.

The valid field of acpi_state.flags is what we have today, and it means
whether this ACPI device state is valid for the device, but not that if
OSPM can actually put the device into that power state.

Thanks,
Aaron
