Distribution like Ubuntu uses klibc rather than uswsusp to resume system from hibernation, which will treat swap partition/file in the form of major:minor:offset. For example, 8:3:0 represents a swap partition in klibc, and klibc's resume process in initrd will finally echo 8:3:0 to /sys/power/resume for manually restoring. However in current implementation, 8:3:0 will be treated as an invalid device format, and it is found that manual resumming from hibernation will fail on lastest kernel.
This patch adds support for device with major:minor:offset format when resumming from hibernation.
