v5:
- removed a paragraph in the recently added qemu_register_wakeup_notifier
comment that was added. That paragraph was adding too much in-depth
information about the current design of the system_wakeup, making it
harder to understand the whole point (suggested by Mike Roth).
- previous version link:
https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2018-01/msg00879.html 

v4:
- added a comment in 'qemu_register_wakeup_notifier' about the effects
of adding a wakeup notifier without proper suspend/wakeup support in the
logic of the new wakeup-suspend-support flag, as suggested by Mike Roth
- previous version link:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2018-01/msg00358.html

v3:
- added a "(since 2.12)" notation in the new flag, as suggested by
Eric Blake
- added a "backwards compatible" note in the commit msg
- previous version link:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2018-01/msg00093.html

v2:
- changed the approach based on v1 discussions: instead of a new API, add
the required flag in QMP query-target
- dropped patch 2 since query-target does not have an HMP counterpart
- previous version link:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2017-12/msg00889.html

When issuing the qmp/hmp 'system_wakeup' command, what happens in a
nutshell is:

- qmp_system_wakeup_request set runstate to RUNNING, sets a wakeup_reason
and notify the event
- in the main_loop, all vcpus are paused, a system reset is issued, all
subscribers of wakeup_notifiers receives a notification, vcpus are then
resumed and the wake up QAPI event is fired

Note that this procedure alone doesn't ensure that the guest will awake
from SUSPENDED state - the subscribers of the wake up event must take
action to resume the guest, otherwise the guest will simply reboot.

At this moment there are only two subscribers of the wake up event: one
in hw/acpi/core.c and another one in hw/i386/xen/xen-hvm.c. This means
that system_wakeup does not work as intended with other architectures.

However, only the presence of 'system_wakeup' is required for QGA to
support 'guest-suspend-ram' and 'guest-suspend-hybrid' at this moment.
This means that the user/management will expect to suspend the guest using
one of those suspend commands and then resume execution using system_wakeup,
regardless of the support offered in system_wakeup in the first place.

This patch adds a new flag called 'wakeup-suspend-support' in TargetInfo
that allows the caller to query if the guest supports wake up from
suspend via system_wakeup. It goes over the subscribers of the wake up
event and, if it's empty, it assumes that the guest does not support
wake up from suspend (and thus, pm-suspend itself).

This is the expected output of query-target when running a x86 guest:

{"execute" : "query-target"}
{"return": {"arch": "x86_64", "wakeup-suspend-support": true}}

This is the output when running a pseries guest:

{"execute" : "query-target"}
{"return": {"arch": "ppc64", "wakeup-suspend-support": false}}

Given that the TargetInfo structure is read-only, adding a new flag to
it is backwards compatible. There is no need to deprecate the old
TargetInfo format.

With this extra tool, management can avoid situations where a guest
that does not have proper suspend/wake capabilities ends up in
inconsistent state (e.g.
https://github.com/open-power-host-os/qemu/issues/31).

This patch updates the descriptions of 'guest-suspend-ram' and
'guest-suspend-hybrid' to mention that both commands relies now
on the existence of 'system_wakeup' and also on the proper support
for wake up from suspend, retrieved by the 'wakeup-suspend-support'
attribute of the 'query-target' QMP command.

Should I re-send it? Not sure if this is applicable in the current code 
base anymore.

git-am isn't happy on current master.  The conflicts look simple enough
for a maintainer to resolve, but that's yet another hurdle.  Best to
respin, I think (assuming you still want the patches to go in).

Just respinned it to v6. Let's see how that goes.
