Hi,

I guess AUTO_ZRELADDR will break S2RAM on h1940/rx1950 and rx3715
machines. Those machines require reservation of 4k at 0x30003000 and
4k at 0x30081000, because bootloader
will corrupt these areas on resume. See .reserve callback in
arch/arm/mach-s3c24xx/mach-{h1940,rx1950,rx3715}

Regards
Vasily
