Re: [PATCH RFC] PM / Hibernate: no kernel_power_off when pm_power_off NULL

Ping..

There appears to be disagreement on the correct path to take on this.

Pavel and Alan recommend that arm's machine_power_off shall never return

Russell suggests hibernation be modified to handle machine_power_off
returning; that x86 architecture (and others as well) can have
machine_power_off returning.

Discussions available at the links below:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/3/25/554 -- linux-arm discussion
https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/3/20/649 -- linux-pm discussion

Should I continue with the original hibernation patch from the
linux-pm discussion?

Does anyone have any response to Russel's commentsl?

Thanks!

Sebastian
