You made the point that "this is not live migration".
I am not discussing live migration in this thread.

I replied for the point that device restoration from suspend for physical and hypevisor based device is not a 40nsec worth of work to restore by just doing a register write.
This is not live or device migration. This is restoring the device context initiated by the driver owning the device.

restore the device context should be done by the hypervisor before
setting DRIVER_OK and waking up the guest, not a concern here, out of spec
