A clarification on this first sentence. I was looking at the ACPI
specification [1] and it seems that there are two optional bits
that can be used to determine if the RTC alarm was the reason of
the resume. However, the value reported can be inaccurate when
resuming from S4 (there's an additional flag to know if the value
is accurate or not), so a fallback mechanism such as the one of
this patch is probably still needed.

I will have a better look at this.

Gabriele
