Hi Tejun, Robert,

hey, great: Suspend to ram seems to work like a charm now! Many thanks 
to Robert for taking the time to identify the root cause and to Tejun 
for providing the patch.

I've attached both boot and suspend / resume messages from 
/var/log/kern.log, just let me know if I can do anything else to
help getting the patch into an official kernel release. Furthermore, I 
would be happy to be kept posted on the progress being made regarding this.

Just one clarification: From what I understood so far, it will be 
impossible to ever utilize the full disk capacity as long as the BIOS 
applies the HPA on boot, right?

Cheers,

Christof
