[27/71] PM / Hibernate: Fix ioctl SNAPSHOT_S2RAM

[Greg KH]

2.6.38-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@xxxxxxx>

commit 36cb7035ea0c11ef2c7fa2bbe0cd181b23569b29 upstream.

The SNAPSHOT_S2RAM ioctl used for implementing the feature allowing
one to suspend to RAM after creating a hibernation image is currently
broken, because it doesn't clear the "ready" flag in the struct
snapshot_data object handled by it.  As a result, the
SNAPSHOT_UNFREEZE doesn't work correctly after SNAPSHOT_S2RAM has
returned and the user space hibernate task cannot thaw the other
processes as appropriate.  Make SNAPSHOT_S2RAM clear data->ready
to fix this problem.
