Hi Lorenzo,
It looks I may have confused you as I didn't realize the word "ARM" only means
32-bit ARM. It looks the "ARM" arch and the "ARM64" arch are very different.

As far as I know, Hyper-V only supports x86 and "ARM64", and it's unlikely to
support 32-bit ARM in the future, so actually I don't really need to know if and
how a 32-bit ARM machine supports hibernation.

When a Linux guest runs on Hyper-V (x86_32, x86_64, or ARM64) , we have a
front-end balloon driver in the guest, which balloons up/down and
hot adds/removes the guest's memory when the host requests that. The problem
is: the back-end driver on the host can not really save and restore the states
related to the front-end balloon driver on guest hibernation, so we made the
decision that balloon up/down and hot-add/remove are not supported when
we enable hibernation for a guest; BTW, we still want to load the front-end
driver in the guest, because the dirver has a functionality of reporting the
guest's memory pressure to the host, which we think is useful.

On x86_32 and x86_64, we enable hibernation for a guest by enabling
the virtual ACPI S4 state for the guest; on ARM64, so far we don't have the
host side changes required to support guest hibernation, so the details are
still unclear.

After I discussed with Michael Kelley, it looks we don't really need to
export drivers/acpi/sleep.c: acpi_sleep_state_supported(), but I think we do
need to make it non-static.

Now I propose the below changes. I plan to submit a patch first for the
changes made to drivers/acpi/sleep.c and include/acpi/acpi_bus.h in a few
days, if there is no objection.

Please let me know how you think of this. Thanks!
