[RFC][PATCH 6/6] swsusp: improve freeing of memory
From: Rafael J. Wysocki
Date: Sat Oct 29 2005 - 15:56:22 EST
This is the bonus patch not functionally related to the previous patches
that speeds up swsusp substantially (on my box swsusp is two times
faster with it) and makes the system be much more responsive after
resume.
However, it only makes sense if the limit imposed by the size of the
swsusp_info structure is lifted, which is done in one of the previous
patches.
