BTW, this may apply to other ARM variants as well, but the hibernation
feature should really be made common first of all in that sense.

commit 1f3ebd28c0e8adf7f7a1fc85377a57d8dbc56267

    UBUNTU: SAUCE: dove: avoid page table overwrite when resuming from
hibernation

    BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/509006

    Resuming from hibernation is OK if 'resume=/dev/sdaX' is explicitly
    specified on the kernel command line, but it fails if scripts in
    initramfs are used to trigger the resume. It turned out to be page
    table being overwritten when restoring the memory content because
    it's using a normal user process's page table in the latter case,
    which is not safe and could be overwritten. Fix this by using the
    safe swapper_pg_dir during restoring.

The patch probably is correct, but from the reviewing point of view I do not
know how I make the connection between swapper_pg_dir in the comment and the
patch itself. Is that only me?

No, I also would like to see a little more information.

Ah, sorry for the confusion. swapper_pg_dir is the initial page table for
ARM kernel, which is physically located at KERNEL_RAM_PADDR - 0x4000.
I should have made it clear by a macro or something. The following code is
excerpted from arch/arm/kernel/head.S:

/*
 * swapper_pg_dir is the virtual address of the initial page table.
 * We place the page tables 16K below KERNEL_RAM_VADDR.  Therefore, we must
 * make sure that KERNEL_RAM_VADDR is correctly set.  Currently, we expect
 * the least significant 16 bits to be 0x8000, but we could probably
 * relax this restriction to KERNEL_RAM_VADDR >= PAGE_OFFSET + 0x4000.
 */
#if (KERNEL_RAM_VADDR & 0xffff) != 0x8000
#error KERNEL_RAM_VADDR must start at 0xXXXX8000
#endif

	.globl	swapper_pg_dir
	.equ	swapper_pg_dir, KERNEL_RAM_VADDR - 0x4000

	.macro	pgtbl, rd
	ldr	\rd, =(KERNEL_RAM_PADDR - 0x4000)
	.endm

Hm, wouldn't it then be possible to make the patch actually use the macro name
instead of the hard coded values?
