So it returns the right value.

Jeff, Jesse, please check one thing for me.

Please boot 2.6.25-rc2 (or better, the current head of the Linus' tree) with
no_console_suspend and try to do the following:

# echo 8 > /proc/sys/kernel/printk
# echo core > /sys/power/pm_test
# echo disk > /sys/power/state

(that will run a test of the freeze/unfreeze code without creating the image)
and then

# echo mem > /sys/power/state

(that will run a test of the suspend/resume code without actually suspending).

I'd like to know if that works.

Thanks,
Rafael
