Sorry about that. I tend to forget about test-compiling with CONFIG_PM unset.

The one below shouldn't have this issue.

Subject: MM / PM: Force GFP_NOIO during suspend/hibernation and resume (rev. 3)

There are quite a few GFP_KERNEL memory allocations made during
suspend/hibernation and resume that may cause the system to hang,
because the I/O operations they depend on cannot be completed due to
the underlying devices being suspended.

Mitigate this problem by clearing the __GFP_IO and __GFP_FS bits in
gfp_allowed_mask before suspend/hibernation and restoring the
original values of these bits in gfp_allowed_mask durig the
subsequent resume.
