Thanks, I've added it like this in arch/arm/Kconfig.  I'm sure you
know, but this way also takes care of the CPU_FEROCEON in the default
list since SUSPEND_POSSIBLE already contains it.

config ARCH_HIBERNATION_POSSIBLE
        bool
        depends on MMU
        default y if ARCH_SUSPEND_POSSIBLE

Does this look ok?

Thanks!

Sebastian
