Actually, when system enters into suspend, the vram will be cleared
(because of poweroff), so we need to evict them into system memory before
that. However, in APU, the vram is actually carved out from system memory,
so we needn't evict them in theory.

Whatever hibernation or suspend, we actually follow the process. I don't
see the usage that you added CONFIG_HIBERNATION here. Alex, what do you
think?

Thanks,
Ray
