I'm afraid I don't quite understand the transitioning of the
ACPI states to figure out the correct thing to do.  My first
inclination would be to:  [sorry, cut and pasted]

--- linux-2.6.tip.orig/arch/x86/kernel/acpi/sleep.c
+++ linux-2.6.tip/arch/x86/kernel/acpi/sleep.c

But I'd like some confirmation that this is right thing to do...

[This mimics what smpboot.c:do_boot_cpu() does.]

Len - I'll cc you on the full patch submission shortly.

Thanks,
Mike
