[PATCH 0/2] PM: hibernate: add helper to detect image-write phase

[Haowen Tu <tuhaowen@uniontech.com>]

During S4 hibernation, after create_image() saves the memory snapshot,
the kernel resumes devices with PMSG_THAW solely to write the hibernation
image to storage before final powerdown.  Drivers unrelated to storage I/O
have no reason to reinitialize during this transient phase.

Drivers using dev_pm_ops already have separate .thaw and .restore
callbacks and can handle this natively.  However, usb_driver.resume
takes no pm_message_t argument, so a USB driver cannot distinguish
PMSG_THAW from PMSG_RESTORE without an out-of-band query.

This series adds pm_hibernation_storing_image(), a small helper that
returns true during the image-write window.  As a first user, the UVC
driver uses it to skip resume in uvc_video_resume() until the real
PMSG_RESTORE wake-up.

Tested with hibernation image written to local storage and resumed from
disk on a system with a USB UVC camera attached.
