Subject: [PATCH 3.19 082/101] Revert "PM / hibernate: avoid unsafe pages in e820 reserved regions"

3.19-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: "Rafael J. Wysocki" <rafael.j.wysocki@...el.com>

commit f82daee49c09cf6a99c28303d93438a2566e5552 upstream.

Commit 84c91b7ae07c (PM / hibernate: avoid unsafe pages in e820 reserved
regions) is reported to make resume from hibernation on Lenovo x230
unreliable, so revert it.

We will revisit the issue the commit in question was supposed to fix
in the future.
