[igt-dev] Testing s2idle/S0?

Hi! Recently one of my coworkers from QA (cc'd here) asked me about whether we
had any tests for s2idle in igt - to which I looked, didn't see anything that
looked like a match, and suggested that they consider contributing some tests
for it. Note that when I mention s2idle here, I'm thinking about systems which
support both s2idle and S3 - as I know that s2idle is already being used by
default for suspend/resume by igt on s2idle only systems.

This made me realize that we don't actually have any explicit suspend/resume
tests - we only have tests which handle testing other functionality across
suspend/resume. This seems like it makes sense for the most part, which brings
me to my real question here - would it be worth it to try adding s2idle
support for most igt tests, so that on s2idle/S3 hybrid systems both suspend
modes are tested individually for each suspend/resume test?
