After resume discrete card must be turned off again #9

After a resume on an MBP 8,2, the discreet card reactivates.

After a result the "inactive" card should be powered off, IE resume should trigger "OFF > vgaswitcheroo" to guarantee the discreet is disabled,

I'm afraid that this isn't something that switcheroo-control can, or should be doing. The firmware or the kernel should be responsible for disabling the discrete GPU when it's not in use.
