Thanks for your time to review this.

I'm not sure that this simplifies things. I think that, in fact, it 
would make them quite a bit more complicated, but perhaps I misunderstand.

Is it not preferred to use the reduced hardware sleep, over the old 
method? While these register definitions may be equivalent below, doing 
the translation in linux, only to translate them back again at a lower 
layer seems unnecessary.

The hypervisor knows how to deal with both the reduced hardware sleep as 
well as the legacy sleep path - it merely need to distinguish these two 
paths, when performing the hypercall.

Since there are two paths through the higher level ACPICA code - that in 
hwsleep.c, and hwesleep.c - there needs to be some distinction between 
the two paths, when calling through to the lower level 
acpi_os_prepare_sleep() call.

An alternate method would be to create another interface named 
acpi_os_prepare_esleep() which would do the equivalent of this patch 
series, with an "extended" parameter hidden from upper level interfaces.

This, however, would also add another function to 
include/acpi/acpiosxf.h - which, I thought was undesirable, in the 
impression that I got from Bob Moore, and Rafael Wysocki (though, please 
correct me on this point, if I have misunderstood)

Best Regards

Ben
