Hi Deepak,

The direct dependencies are modular USB (#6935) and being able to turn
off the wireless chipset (#3355).

Before we can ship power management, though, we should also fix:
  * the SD corruption bug (#6532) -- if we can't fix it in time, we can
    inhibit suspend when an SD card is plugged in.
  * pushing wakeup decisions to the EC (#6010) -- this will make the
    wakeup logic more reliable.

Thanks!

- Chris.
