That is already there:

qemu_system_suspend_request, qemu_register_suspend_notifier
   for S0->S3

qemu_system_wakeup_request, qemu_register_wakeup_notifier
   for S3->S0

qemu_system_powerdown_request, qemu_register_powerdown_notifier
   for Sx->S5

and the reset mechanism for S5->S0.

Most of these should only be used by one "power management device" on
the board (e.g. the PIIX3 or ICH9 power management devices in hw/acpi/*)
and distributed to the other devices via whatever buses exist on the
real machine.
