[PATCH 1/2] PM: make VT switching to the suspend console optional

[Jesse Barnes <jbarnes@virtuousgeek.org>]

KMS drivers can potentially restore the display configuration without
userspace help.  Such drivers can set a new global, pm_vt_switch, to
false if they support this feature.  In that case, the PM layer won't VT
switch to the suspend console at suspend time and then back to the
original VT on resume, but rather leave things alone for a nicer looking
suspend and resume sequence.
