I concur with your pros and cons. This makes me think that if S4BIOS support
ever gets added, it should get added to 2.4 only.

ACPI/S4 support needs swsusp. ACPI/S3 needs big part of
swsusp. Splitting CONFIG_ACPI_SLEEP to S3 and S4 part seems like
overdesign to me, OTOH if you do the work it is okay with me.
