[RFC] power/hibernate: Make passing hibernate offsets more friendly

From: Mario Limonciello
Date: Wed Feb 28 2018 - 12:45:08 EST


Currently the only way to specify a hibernate offset for a swap
file is on the kernel command line.

This makes some changes to improve:
1) Add a new /sys/power/disk_offset that lets userspace specify
the offset and disk to use when initiating a hibernate cycle.

2) Adjust /sys/power/resume interpretation to also read in an
offset.

Actually klibc's /bin/resume has supported passing a hibernate
offset in since 20695264e21dcbde309cd81f73cfe2cea42e779d.

The kernel was just lobbing anything after the device specified
off the string. Instead parse that and populate hibernate offset
with it.

An alternative to introducing a new sysfs parameter may be to document
setting these values via /sys/power/resume. If the wrong signature is found
on the swapfile/swap partition by the kernel it does show an error
but it updates the values and they'll work when actually invoked later.

In that case it may make sense to adjust that error and make it level
info and explain the situation.
