Subject: [PATCH] Hibernation: Make sure that ACPI is enabled in acpi_hibernation_finish

From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@...k.pl>

If the BIOS does not enable ACPI and the "acpi=off" command line parameter is
passed to the boot kernel, ACPI may be disabled when the (restored) image kernel
attempts to execute acpi_hibernation_finish().  To prevent this from happening
we can call acpi_enable() from acpi_hibernation_finish() (if ACPI is already
enabled, this will have no effect).
