Subject: Re: Suspend/resume - slow resume


Hello Francois,

I tried your patch and my machine resumes properly.

Here is what I did to test it: I compiled the patched module, unloaded the 
previous module, loaded the new one, and then suspend & resume. Output of 
dmesg attached. Please let me know if you need any other information.

Regards,
