Hi,
The first two patches in this series make it possible to restore the memory

The idea is to split the core restoration code into two separate parts and to
place each of them in a different page. The first part
From: Rafael J. Wysocki [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Use temporary page tables for the kernel text mapping during hibernation restore
on x86_64.
Without the patch, the original boot kernel's page tables that represent the
kernel text mapping are used while the core of the image kernel is being
restored.
From: Rafael J. Wysocki [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Since we already pass the address of restore_registers() in the image header,
we can also pass the value of the CR3 register from before the hibernation in
the same way. This will allow us to avoid using init_level4_pgt page tables
during the restore.
