... but ->shutdown() only involves the platform in the
'system_state == SYSTEM_POWER_OFF' case!

In fact, using pci_choose_state() in ->shutdown() is a very convoluted way of
checking the 'system_state' value, and not a 100% reliable one. :-)

Namely, the fact that pci_choose_state() returns you D0 instead of D3hot for
'system_state != SYSTEM_POWER_OFF' is a pure coincidence (accidentally, there
is an ACPI handle for the device, but there need not be one) and you should
not rely on that in general.  Generally speaking, pci_choose_state() is not to
be used outside of the drivers' ->suspend() routines.

[Yes, this means e1000 will have to be fixed, as I said before.]

Apart from this, pci_choose_state() is broken and will shortly be deprecated.
Moreover, in future all direct references to PMSG_SUSPEND from the drivers
will be removed.

Thanks,
Rafael
