Really? Okay. When did that change?

Well then, for now, let's drop that patch then. At least it's got us the 
numbers we needed to see these patches are useful. Longer term, I'll do 
what I do in TuxOnIce and allocate a page while writing the image, store 
it's location in the image header and use it the transfer information 
from the boot kernel to the resumed kernel. (Essentially the same thing, 
except without the special section).
