Subject: [PATCH v3 0/2] clarify limitations of hibernation

These patches aim to make it clearer under which circumstances
hibernation will function as expected.  They include one documentation
change, and one change which logs more information on failure to
enter hibernation.

---- comments on patch versions ----

As suggested, v3 makes the log messages more consistent, by including the term
"hibernation" in most of them (if not all).  (I think this was worth it, also
because this code doesn't change often, but we're quickly entering the region
of diminishing returns.)

v2 uses better terminology in the Documentation, and removes a suggestion
for a workaround.
