The bus code is responsible for calling the device-specific methods, but 
the device-specific drivers will typically know nothing about ACPI. 
They'll only know that the bus code asked them to enter a low-power mode 
or that they got a wakeup event.

Yes. All determination is done per-device. Check 
Documentation/power/runtime_pm.txt.
