Actually, I think the QUIRKS_NONE option has a slightly different meaning: If no quirks are passed to pm-suspend, pm-suspend does not know if that is a) because the machine doesn't require quirks b) because the machine hasn't been tested yet. QUIRKS_NONE=true simply documents that it is safe to suspend the machine if no --quirks-* options are given. It doesn't mean, that other --quirks-* should be cleared. A command line like pm-suspend --quirk-none --quirk-vbe-post is simply invalid. QUIRK_NONE thus would only be interersting within do_suspend. Atm. we unconditionally do "echo mem > /sys/power/state". QUIRK_NONE would allow us to check if the machine has been successfully tested or not and only do the suspend in that case. We don't do that, so strictly speaking we could just ignore QUIRK_NONE (and I guess that's the reason why I ignored it in uswsusp). I actually think, that the QUIRK_NONE tests in 99video could/should also be removed. As said, combinations like --quirk-none --quirk-vbe-mode are simply invalid.
