How long-standing is it? Always worked great for me under 5.1-RELEASE.

Before I switched from 5.1-RELEASE to 5.2-BETA (and then -RC1 later) I got
ACPI S3 working on my laptop. I just had to issue an `atacontrol detach 1`
before suspending. APM worked great under 5.1-RELEASE also.
S3 doesn't work at all under -RC1 for me. It suspends, but I get a blank
screen on resume and no keyboard response, AFAICT. Have there been meaningful
ACPI commits since -RC1?
So far my general impression is that 5.2 is a slight regression from 5.1 and 5.1
was a slight regression in many ways from 4.x. I know a LOT has changed since
5.1 and I can appreciate that. After all, my external USB->ATAPI 2.5" usb hard
disk enclosure works for the first time in 5.2-BETA and -RC1 (it didn't work in
4.8, or 5.1). Also, I'm incredibly excited about all the kernel threading work
going on right now. I run many dual CPU machines at work and I can't wait to
try out a stable SMPng setup on them.
But I'm craving stability at this point. The bleeding edge is getting uncomfortable.
