ACPI hibernate: Add a mechanism to save/restore ACPI NVS memory
According to the ACPI Specification 3.0b, Section 15.3.2,
"OSPM will call the _PTS control method some time before entering a
sleeping state, to allow the platform's AML code to update this
memory image before entering the sleeping state. After the system
awakes from an S4 state, OSPM will restore this memory area and call
the _WAK control method to enable the BIOS to reclaim its memory
image." For this reason, implement a mechanism allowing us to save
the NVS memory during hibernation and to restore it during the
subsequent resume.
Based on a patch by Zhang Rui.
