I've been running kernels with Gerry's 5 patches applied for 11 days 
now. This is on a 64bit laptop but with a 32bit kernel + HIGHMEM. I 
joined the conversation because my laptop would not resume from suspend 
to disk - it either froze or rebooted. With the patches applied the 
laptop does successfully resume and has been stable.

Since Monday, I have have been running a kernel with the patches (plus, 
from today, the patch you mailed yesterday) applied to 3.7rc7, without 
problems.

Thanks,
Chris
