Hi Kees,
In your commit 65fe935dd, you mentioned with the fix of 70595b479ce1,
the x86 hibernation restrictions can be removed. However I didn't find
it in Linus's tree. I found commit 65c0554 ("x86/power/64: Fix kernel text
mapping corruption during image restoration"), it should be the one you
mentioned, but not very sure since it was merged later than your commit.
Could you help confirm this?

x86/KASLR, x86/power: Remove x86 hibernation restrictions
With the following fix:
70595b479ce1 ("x86/power/64: Fix crash whan the hibernation code passes
control to the image kernel")
... there is no longer a problem with hibernation resuming a
KASLR-booted kernel image, so remove the restriction.

x86/power/64: Fix kernel text mapping corruption during image restoration
Logan Gunthorpe reports that hibernation stopped working reliably for
him after commit ab76f7b4ab23 (x86/mm: Set NX on gap between __ex_table
and rodata).
Thanks
