I still disagree with this - the level of 'frozenness' of a device is
something that belongs in the defined state exposed to userspace, not
as a hidden internal state that userspace can't see.
It makes the state transitions asymmetric between suspend/resume as
resume does have a defined uAPI state for each level of frozeness and
suspend does not.
With the extra bit resume does:
0000, 0100, 1000, 0001
And suspend does:
0001, 1001, 0010, 0000
However, without the extra bit suspend is only
001, 010, 000
With hidden state inside the 010
