Hi,

The following three patches make swsusp use its own data structures for memory
management instead of special page flags.  Thus the page flags used so far by
swsusp (PG_nosave, PG_nosave_free) can be used for other purposes and I believe
there are some urgend needs of them. :-)

Last week I sent these patches to the linux-pm and linux-mm lists and there
were no negative comments.  Also I've been testing them on my x86_64 boxes for
a few days and apparently they don't break anything.  I think they can go into
-mm for testing.

Comments are welcome.

Greetings,
Rafael
