<title>PM/gxfb: add hook to PM console layer that allows disabling of suspend VT switch</title>

Prior to suspend, we allocate and switch to a new VT; after suspend, we switch
back to the original VT.  This can be slow, and is completely unnecessary if
the framebuffer we're using can restore video properly.

This adds a hook that allows drivers to select whether or not to do this vt
switch, and changes the gxfb driver to call this hook.  It also adds a module
param to gxfb to allow controlling of the vt switch (defaulting to no switch).

(Note: I'm not convinced that console_sem is the best way to protect this, but
we should probably have some form of locking..)

- Add comments explaing how drain_pages() works.

- Eliminate useless functions

- Rename drain_all_local_pages to drain_all_pages(). It does drain
  all pages not only those of the local processor.

- Eliminate useless interrupt off / on sequences. drain_pages()
  disables interrupts on its own. The execution thread is
  pinned to processor by the caller. So there is no need to
  disable interrupts.

- Put drain_all_pages() declaration in gfp.h and remove the
  declarations from suspend.h and from mm/memory_hotplug.c

- Make software suspend call drain_all_pages(). The draining
  of processor local pages is may not the right approach if
  software suspend wants to support SMP. If they call drain_all_pages
  then we can make drain_pages() static.

On ACPI systems the target state set by acpi_pm_set_target() is
reset by acpi_pm_finish(), but that need not be called if the
suspend fails.  All platforms that use the .set_target() global
suspend callback are affected by analogous issues.

For this reason, we need an additional global suspend callback that
will reset the target state regardless of whether or not the suspend
is successful.  Also, it is reasonable to rename the .set_target()
callback, since it will be used for a different purpose on ACPI
systems (due to ACPI 1.0x code ordering requirements).

Introduce the global suspend callback .end() to be executed at the
end of the suspend sequence and rename the .set_target() global
suspend callback to .begin().

This patch (as1008b) converts the PM notifier routines from inline
calls to out-of-line code.  It also prevents pm_chain_head from
being created when CONFIG_PM_SLEEP isn't enabled, and EXPORTs the
notifier registration and unregistration routines.

<title>Hibernation: Check if ACPI is enabled during restore in the right place</title>

The following scenario leads to total confusion of the platform firmware on
some boxes (eg. HPC nx6325):
* Hibernate with ACPI enabled
* Resume passing "acpi=off" to the boot kernel

To prevent this from happening it's necessary to check if ACPI is enabled (and
enable it if that's not the case) _right_ _after_ control has been transfered
from the boot kernel to the image kernel, before device_power_up() is called
(ie.  with interrupts disabled).   Enabling ACPI after calling
device_power_up() turns out to be insufficient.

For this reason, introduce new hibernation callback -&gt;leave() that will be
executed before device_power_up() by the restored image kernel.   To make it
work, it also is necessary to move swsusp_suspend() from swsusp.c to disk.c
(it's name is changed to "create_image", which is more up to the point).

During hibernation we also need to tell the ACPI core that we're going to put
the system into the S4 sleep state.  For this reason, an additional method in
'struct hibernation_ops' is needed, playing the role of set_target() in
'struct platform_suspend_operations'.  Moreover, the role of the .prepare()
method is now different, so it's better to introduce another method, that in
general may be different from .prepare(), that will be used to prepare the
platform for creating the hibernation image (.prepare() is used anyway to
notify the platform that we're going to enter the low power state after the
image has been saved).
