If I recall correctly, that flamewar was about the whole idea of what
caused the system to wake up.  In general, the system does not know
what caused it to wake up.  All it knows, once it is awake again, is
what IRQs (or other similar events, such as ACPI GPEs) are pending.  It
doesn't know which of those events caused it to wake up.  And if 
multiple devices share the same IRQ line, the PM core won't know which 
of them raised the IRQ.

Of course, for some purposes this distinction doesn't matter.
