Andrew,

The attached Pavel's patch for swsusp is missing from 2.6.9-final.  It is an 
urgent bugfix, so please consider including it into 2.6.9.

Greets,
RJW

Hi!

In assembly code, there are some problems with "nosave" section
(linker was doing something stupid, like duplicating the section). We
attempted to fix it, but fix was worse then first problem. This fixes
is for good: We no longer use any memory in the copy loop. (Plus it
fixes indentation and uses meaningfull labels.)

Patch is against 2.6.9-rc3. -mm has sligtly different version, with
more text on ".section .data.nosave" line. Those lines should really
be removed.
								Pavel
