Yes, it's PM1a_STS from the PM1a_EVT block; the pointer is in the FADT.

x86/s3.c already has code to look for the FADT, so a fix should be easy.
 On top of that we should move the ACPI tables to a header and the
parsing code to lib/x86, so that the vmexit test can use it to find the
PM_TMR address.
