Sorry, Andrew. I wasn't awared that an earlier version of this patch
has already been merged, and this patch fixed resume issue on Alan's
845G, which was discussed on linux-pm list, I should have made more
clear note about that. We've also seen other resume failure bugs, which
might be relate to this one. So I think it should be fine for stable.

sorry, my mistake, the 3/3 commit on my tree is not ready to send, 
forget to make git format-patch happy.
