Sure, I will split the series here, and group the later patches so there are no
dependencies.

Even with the enable calls added? CONFIG_ARCH_HIBERNATION_CPU_HOOKS?

Done. I've added the 'in_suspend' argument so that it's symmetrical, this may be
slightly different to the behaviour of your 'in_resume_hibernate' flag.

I added it for completeness/symmetry (but not the enable call because it
wouldn't have any users). I assume its something to do with acpi...



Thanks,
