As bug description. We included an additional patch that wasn't
necessary because the base feature is not present in our 5.4
kernel. The unnecessary patch causes a panic when triggering
hibernation in some azure instances.

I managed to reproduce the panic following the steps from in E and D
instances types:

Reverting the commit solves the issue. I also tested hibernation on
intances under high memory utilization and the intances entered
hibernation without issues with up to 70% of memory utilization. I
tested that with stress-ng (ie, stress-ng --vm 8 --vm-bytes 50% -t 1d).
