f1cc0a894c PM: issue PM_EVENT_PRETHAW
This patch is the first of this series that should actually change any
behavior ...  by issuing the new event, now tha the rest of the kernel is
prepared to receive it.

This converts the PM core to issue the new PRETHAW message, which the rest of
the kernel is now ready to receive.

9b238205ba [PATCH] swsusp: add s2ram ioctl to userland interface
Add the SNAPSHOT_S2RAM ioctl to the snapshot device.

This ioctl allows a userland application to make the system (previously frozen
with the SNAPSHOT_FREE ioctl) enter the S3 state without freezing processes
and disabling nonboot CPUs for the second time.

This will allow us to implement the suspend-to-disk-and-RAM (STDR)
functionality in the userland suspend tools.

Remove the console-switching code from the suspend part of the swsusp userland

02aaeb9b95 [PATCH] swsusp: freeze user space processes first
Allow swsusp to freeze processes successfully under heavy load by freezing
userspace processes before kernel threads.

[Thanks to Nigel Cunningham <nigel@suspend2.net> for suggesting the
way to go.]

6e1819d615 [PATCH] swsusp: userland interface
This patch introduces a user space interface for swsusp.

The interface is based on a special character device, called the snapshot
device, that allows user space processes to perform suspend and resume-related
operations with the help of some ioctls and the read()/write() functions.
 Additionally it allows these processes to allocate free swap pages from a
selected swap partition, called the resume partition, so that they know which
sectors of the resume partition are available to them.

The interface uses the same low-level system memory snapshot-handling
functions that are used by the built-it swap-writing/reading code of swsusp.

The interface documentation is included in the patch.

The patch assumes that the major and minor numbers of the snapshot device will
be 10 (ie.  misc device) and 231, the registration of which has already been
requested.
