Userspace "s2ram" != PM_SUSPEND_MEM ("suspend-to-RAM") though.

I'm not even sure there's a globally acceptable definition of
what PM_SUSPEND_MEM indicates, beyond the fact that one expects
it saves more power than PM_SUSPEND_STANDBY.

Yes, the Documentation/power/states.txt regurgitates ACPI spec text.
But lots of non-ACPI systems don't have any reason to do things
like ACPI says.  And in terms of latency, I've seen a lot of that
be due to the PM framework taking so long to walk the device tree,
with no substantial difference between "standby" and "str" costs.
