Thanks for this series!

I'd like to help in testing this so I'm just curious which platforms
you've been testing this on.  I'm assuming a Juno (r2?), anything else?

Are you testing the resume from cold boot, or just from kexec?

For cold boot on Juno, I'm assuming there would be some
booloader/firmware changes needed to find and boot from the hibernation
image?  Is that being worked on?  If not Juno, are you aware of any
other platforms that could be tested with resume from cold boot?

Not knowing the answers to the above, I tested your branch using arm64
defconfig + CONFIG_HIBERNATION=y on my Juno and noticed that it didn't
stay suspended (full suspend log below) so I'm looking for
ideas/recommenations on how to test this.

FWIW, my Juno is running the latest ATF + u-boot firmware from the
Linaro ARM landing team.
