Subject: Re: [BUG] Kernel panic when using Hibernation on kernel 6.1.25

Hi!

> I encountered a kernel panic when using the Hibernation on kernel version 6.1.25. Below are the details of the issue:
> 
> **Description:**
> When I enable CONFIG_HIBERNATION and assign a specific partition for hibernation resuming and perform a specific operation, the system crashes with a kernel panic.
> 
> CONFIG_HIBERNATION=y
> CONFIG_PM_STD_PARTITION="/dev/mmcblk0p16"
> 
> **Steps to Reproduce:**
> 1.	Set printk to level 8: ` echo 8 > /proc/sys/kernel/printk`
> 2.	Set up the swap partition: ` mkswap /dev/mmcblk0p16`
> 3.	Enable the swap partition: ` swapon -p -3 /dev/mmcblk0p16`
> 4.	Configure hibernation resuming settings: ` echo "/dev/mmcblk0p16" > /sys/power/resume`
> 5.	Configure hibernation mode:` echo reboot > /sys/power/disk`
> 6.	Perform the operation: ` echo disk > /sys/power/state`
> 7.	Observe the kernel panic

> 
> **Expected Behavior:**
> The operation should complete successfully without causing a kernel panic.

> **Actual Behavior:**
> The system crashes with a kernel panic.

> **Environment:**
> - Kernel version: 6.1.25
> - Distribution: Yocto 4.0 32bit/Kernel 6.1.25 32bit
> - Hardware: Arm Cortex A55, 1GB RAM

We'd need to know way more about the hardware. Also testing with
latest mainline would be useful.
