For the record, netaccel needs to remove any mappings of the hardware
during the suspend callback since those mappings are not valid after the
suspend has completed.  Those hardware mappings (or the mappings
appropriate for the new machine) are restored on resume as a result of
the standard netfront/netback connection being re-established.  If the
suspend is cancelled, the netfront/netback connection stays in place but
the hardware mappings need to be re-established which is why the
suspend_cancel callback is used.

Cheers, Neil.
