hardware maintains all system contexts.
S3/Suspend To RAM (STR) is a power-down state. In this
state, power is supplied only to essential components such as
main memory and wakeup-capable devices.
context is saved to main memory, and context is restored
from the memory when a "wakeup" event occurs.
Depends on the OS to select S1 or S3.
