Somehow, that's what we've done for several months at the very least.
Moreover, my test boxes apparently don't care.

OTOH, evidently, some systems have been broken by moving the call to
acpi_pm_finish() before device_resume().  This seems to implicate that there
are two parts of code in acpi_pm_finish(), one that should be executed before
device_resume(), including the _WAK method, and the other that should be
executed after device_resume().  Now, the question is how to split it into
these parts.

Greetings,
Rafael
