Runtime suspend = things like S0ix and other forms of shallow sleep.
System suspend = suspend-to-RAM.

It's not about hibernate (though it'd of course nice if a transition
from suspend to hibernate because of low battery won't result in the
device consuming so much battery during the intermediate wakeup that
the device shuts down rather than hibernates).


Kind regards, David
