See Documentation/power/video.txt for s3_bios and s3_mode.
s3_beep is for debugging; it makes the PC's speaker beep
as soon as the kernel's real-mode entry point is called.
+ old_ordering causes the ACPI 1.0 ordering of the _PTS
+ control method, wrt putting devices into low power
+ states, to be enforced (the ACPI 2.0 ordering of _PTS is
+ used by default).

idle= [X86]

+ Format: idle=poll or idle=mwait, idle=halt, idle=nomwait
Poll forces a polling idle loop that can slightly improves the performance
of waking up a idle CPU, but will use a lot of power and make the system
run hot. Not recommended.
to not use it because it doesn't save as much power as a normal idle
loop use the MONITOR/MWAIT idle loop anyways. Performance should be the same
as idle=poll.
+ idle=halt. Halt is forced to be used for CPU idle.
+ In such case C2/C3 won't be used again.
+ idle=nomwait. Disable mwait for CPU C-states
