It may have certain differences from the user point of view, but from
the implementation view, it seems that it is nearly exactly the same.
The only differences seem to be:
- rather than shutting down, do whatever is necessary to stick the
system in S4 state.
- make sure ACPI isn't initialized by the "load image" kernel
- rather than "resume from hibernate" ACPI by initializing it normally,
issue the special hibernate-related methods.
Thus, it seems that supporting ACPI S4 will have a very minimal affect
on the hibernate implementation.
