I prefer to join them for now. I'm not convinced resaving is the best way
to go for sleep/wake, HID defaults are saved during boot. If other bits
have been flipped, chances are there's higher-level code that needs to
be aware and do things on resume anyway, and they can just set the bit
again there (i.e. platform suspend/resume handlers).

So, I prefer to keep the change as-is until there's code that shows the
neccessity of having it the other way.

I didn't change any 32-bit code, so it's still there! :)  (see below)

Yeah, on second look it wouldn't be hard. I'll add it to the cputable
and use those pointers. It'll get rid of one of the PVR checks too.
