I needed to rebase it against the current mainline (Makefile conflict).

Some remarks:

- It looks like arch/x86/kernel/acpi/wakeup.S is not necessary any more.

- These warnings:

/home/rafael/src/linux-2.6/arch/x86/kernel/acpi/sleep.c: In function ‘acpi_save_state_mem’:

look pretty scary.

- Could the real mode directory be called just "real-mode" or something like
  this ("rm" is not very meaningful :-))?

Apart from the above and the _WAKEUP hacks mentioned elsewhere, it looks okay
(from a very high orbit).

Greetings,
Rafael
