This would work fine for an architecture that doesn't need to use
arch_hibernation_disable_cpus(), but which header file should we use for an
architecture that does?

As a macro it needs to be in an arch-specific header included before the #ifndef
above.

Of those:
include/linux/suspend.h only includes <asm/errno.h>
kernel/power/power.h doesn't include any 'asm' headers.
snapshot.c includes:
> #include <asm/uaccess.h>
> #include <asm/mmu_context.h>
> #include <asm/pgtable.h>
> #include <asm/tlbflush.h>
> #include <asm/io.h>

... but none of those are appropriate.


I initially added an include for <asm/suspend.h> to kernel/power/power.h, but it
broke powerpc, as there is no suspend.h there. I took this as a dead-end for the
macro approach, unless someone has a clever trick?!



Thanks,

James
