Some general comments: - can the cluster PM notifier be used for the save path? - This patch adds lots of data that is immediately removed by the next patch. Probably the two just need to be combined. - BUG_ON() should not be used unless there is absolutely no recovery path, since it casues a full kernel panic. Instead, some error recovery should be added.
