[PATCH v2] PM: HIBERNATION: add resume_wait param to support MMC-like devices as resume file

From: Barry Song <baohua.song at csr.com>

Some devices like mmc are async detected very slow. For example,
drivers/mmc/host/sdhci.c launchs a 200ms delayed work to detect
mmc partitions then add disk.

we do have wait_for_device_probe and scsi_complete_async_scans
before calling swsusp_check, but it is not enough to wait mmc.

This patch adds resumewait kernel param just like rootwait so
that we have enough time to wait mmc ready. The differene is
here we wait for resume partition but rootwait waits for rootfs
partition.

This patch will make swsusp support many embedded products
without scsi devices but devices like mmc.

This was tested on one ARM platform with Frank Hofmann's patch.
