Subject: [PATCH RFC] suspend: Prevent might sleep splats

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@...utronix.de>

timekeeping suspend/resume calls read_persistent_clock() which takes
rtc_lock. That results in might sleep warnings because at that point
we run with interrupts disabled.

We cannot convert rtc_lock to a raw spinlock as that would trigger
other might sleep warnings.

As a workaround we disable the might sleep warnings by setting
system_state to SYSTEM_SUSPEND before calling sysdev_suspend() and
restoring it to SYSTEM_RUNNING afer sysdev_resume().
