I have tested only S2DISK, so the PCI and all other hardware
loses all power.
I tried to implement both S2DISK and S2MEM initially, but
problem solving was too difficult and then I dropped S2MEM.

Maybe it is easier then to add S2MEM and hibernate support,
when S2DISK works.

I used mantis_dvb.c's implementation of tuner power on/off.
I used cu1216_init (cu1216_init_none called it)
for fe->ops.init to reinitialize cu1216 on resume after S2DISK.

With your help, the implementation might become a bit simpler
and a lot better and fine-grained.

Within mantis_dvb.c I tried to do on suspend
cu1216:get_parameters(fe, &params), but that locked up almost always
and S2DISK didn't save it's state into swap space.
Thus I decided to not call get_parameters and used the NULL workaround
to inform cu1216_set_parameters() to do the previous tuning.
Currently I do set_parameters() only if DMA transfer was going on during 
suspend.

So I did power up on mantis_dvb.c and then called cu1216.c init
and then called cu1216_set_parameters() to tune into the correct
frequency and then called mantis_dma_start() to restore DMA transfer.
I didn't have to wait for a lock to start the DMA transfer. Thus the resume
code is rather simple.

Of course I had to do all PCI stuff and Mantis init and internal Mantis 
IRQ restore after computer
power off state.

Thankyou. I downloaded it. It takes some time to make the patches.
