Hello!

I have applied the patches you mentioned, and rebuilt and tested the
2.6.35.4 kernel. I am really happy to say that your patches (cumulatively)
fixed the issue!

Unfortunately, because the hibernation is rather quick, I am having a
hard time getting screen-shots with my camera. If you would like, I can
try to put some sleeps around the code so that I can get the output for
you.

For the record, the attached patch is the cumulative version of all of
your patches. It applies cleanly to 2.6.35.4, and most importantly, it
fixes the issue.

All in all, thanks a lot!

Is there anything else I can do? Would you like me to try a trimmed
version of your patch, maybe without the debugging parts and the 5-pass
swap-out procedure, which I am not sure is essential or not?

Thanks again,

M. Vefa Bicakci
