This might very well be.
I, however, have seen too many machines die on needlessly applied quirks to
believe that this is the silver bullet everybody is searching for.
And it will make resume much slower on machines that don't need a quirk at all.
Additionally, the combination of quirks is dubious, at least (i have yet to
find a machine that needs vbestate and vbemode restore, since the first seems
to imply the second.

But yeah, i'm certainly not knowing what the gurus here are all talking about...

Have fun,
