That's alive and well in shipping mobile phones and
perhaps other devices. However, it requires quite a
bit of work to port it to a new architecture/cpu and
as far as I know it never went mainstream. You'll end
up with somewhat of a custom PM solution. Nothing
wrong with that, as long as you're willing to maintain
it internally as your kernel revs forward.
