Is that because of the matching table, or due to the slightly more
convoluted way of suspending the platform through CPU_SUSPEND?

If the former, I can think of other solutions. If the latter, I'm
open to keep convincing you :D There are probably things I skipped
over when explaining how it's wired up..
