Paul,

As of 3.18-rc1 I can no longer hibernate my Dell XPS-13. Bisect points
the finger at 35ce7f29a. A revert of that commit confirms, I can once
again hibernate my machine without it.

When the hibernation fails I see this in dmesg:
[ 37.953313] PM: Syncing filesystems ... done.

I am not sure what else I can provide that might be useful, but I did
see the thread on net-dev about this same commit. Please CC me on any
fixes and I will be happy to test.
