** Description changed:

  [Impact]
  
  In LP: #1918694 we applied a fix and a workaround to solve the
  hibernation issues on c5.18xlarge. The workaround was in the form of a
  SAUCE patch:
  
-   "UBUNTU: SAUCE: aws: kvm: double the size of hv_clock_boot"
+   "UBUNTU: SAUCE: aws: kvm: double the size of hv_clock_boot"
  
  It looks like we can replace this workaround with a proper fix, by applying 
this patch:
  
https://lore.kernel.org/kvm/[email protected]/T/#m7533e1d1e551bff425da029fd401bd87935edc33
  
  [Test plan]
  
  Create a c5.18xlarge instance, run the memory stress test script (the
  same test script that we are using to stress test hibernation), trigger
  the hibernate event, trigger the resume event. Repeat a couple of times
  and the problem is very likely to happen.
  
  [Fix]
  
+ Replace "UBUNTU: SAUCE: aws: kvm: double the size of hv_clock_boot"
+ with:
+ 
  
https://lore.kernel.org/kvm/[email protected]/T/#m7533e1d1e551bff425da029fd401bd87935edc33
  
  The fix has been tested extensively in the AWS infrastructure with
  positive results.
  
  [Regression potential]
  
  This new code introduced by the fix can be executed also when a CPU is
  put offline, so we may see potential regressions in the KVM CPU
  hotplugging.
