I'm just not sure how many suspend/resume cycles people really do on a early (pre -rc) mainline kernel (or in linux-next for that matter). You usually have to install on a laptop and actually use it. Since this code is only executed on resume some directed testing would be better. That is what Rafael asked for in this mail. I think it would be ok for .26 if we can get confirmation it works on a few systems with S3 suspend/resume. -Andi
