None, other than slightly enlarging the kernel with some
suspend/resume stuff we don't care about. It's always been
unavailable for SN2 builds:

depends on IA64_GENERIC || IA64_DIG || IA64_HP_ZX1 || IA64_HP_ZX1_SWIOTLB

but there doesn't appear to be any particular reason for that other
than us not needing it (and in fact SN2 systems can run IA64_GENERIC
kernels with CONFIG_PM enabled without incident).

Sounds good to me. Does that mean everything currently controlled by
CONFIG_ACPI_BOOT will be controlled by CONFIG_ACPI instead?
