I just saw an email on the Linux ACPI list someone posted they needed 
to clear the abnormal termination bit on some motherboards before 
suspending so that the BIOS would correctly hand-off back to the OS.

I'm not sure if we're doing this already, but the equivilent would be 
to put the following before going into S3:
AcpiHwRegisterWrite (ACPI_MTX_DO_NOT_LOCK, ACPI_REGISTER_PM1_STATUS, 
0x800);
