Today I posted some updates for iprb and fdc.  These drivers, available from

     http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/device_drivers/files/

have made it possible for me to use suspend/resume nicely on my Dell 
Precision M390 workstation.  I'm using build 100 of Solaris.  These 
drivers also support quiesce, and I'm able to use reboot -f on this 
platform now, as well.

Look for files named "iprb-2008-11-01.tar.gz" and 
"fdc-2008-11-01.tar.gz".  The fdc tarball actually includes a nice 
installation script.  I wrote that after I'd already posted iprb, so the 
iprb tarball lacks it.

A lot more detail about both this is up at my blog, 
http://gdamore.blogspot.com/  -- including a webrev of the fdc changes.

I'll be filing CRs to get these integrated, but they probably won't show 
up until b103 at the earliest.  I'd appreciate code review feedback.  
(Internal folks willing to review iprb, which can't be made public yet, 
should contact me offline.)
