Even,
Can you add more details and resubmit ASAP?

Basically after hiberation, the ISH can't resume properly and user may
not see sensor events (for example: screen rotation may not work).
User will not see a crash or panic or anything except the following
message in log:
hid-sensor-hub 001F:8086:22D8.0001: timeout waiting for response from 
ISHTP device 

So this is adding support for S4/hiberbation to ISH.



Thanks,
Srinivas
