Rafael, how is kernel/power/user.c snapshot_open() not broken (any any
other __pm_notifier_call_chain() user)?
afaict the __pm_notifier_call_chain() thing is broken in two ways:
- there can be a change to the notifier list between the PREPARE and
POST iteration
- the error value isn't put through notifier_to_errno().
