Yes this looks like kernel code shoehorned into userspace. As it
deals with suspending/resuming hardware for example, and that is
something the kernel needs to coordinate and do uniformly across
all devices (IMO).

A while back Arun Murthy was working on creating an embedded
modem subsystem but the development stopped. However such a
subsystem is a generic problem of general interest and this would be
one of the candidates for drivers/modem I think. Sadly creating it
may be a lot of work, I don't know exactly.
