I tried the tip:smp/hotplug branch under kvm x86_64, and I didn't see
any problems with suspend or hibernate, even with CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE.
I'll see if I can get my hands on a tegra system tomorrow.  Until
then, two questions:

1. The issue appears with suspend (echo mem > /sys/power/state), as
   opposed to hibernate, right?

2. CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE is good, but CONFIG_PREEMPT is bad, right?

Thanks,
Richard
