Subject: Re: [PATCH] Allow memory hotplug and hibernation in the same kernel

Sure.

This exclusion is nearly meaningless. if anybody remove cpu, memory and/or
various peripheral from hibernated machine. the system might not resume.
it's obvious. memory is not special.

Documentation/power/swsusp.txt explicitly said

	 * BIG FAT WARNING *********************************************************
	 *
	 * If you touch anything on disk between suspend and resume...
	 *                              ...kiss your data goodbye.


I like this patch.
