Nothing. They don't need any kernel options to work. The dummydriver only works for two specific devices identified by their PCI-ID (or whatever you call that). It will *not* work for other devices. You'll have better luck using resume-finish-split as I didn't see anything device specific in there (well, I didn't look very long heh). These two patches don't help resuming your Radeon, they just prevent a freeze during resume caused by *other* devices.
