From 452aa6999e6703ffbddd7f6ea124d3968915f3e3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Rafael J. Wysocki" Date: Fri, 5 Mar 2010 13:42:13 -0800 Subject: mm/pm: force GFP_NOIO during suspend/hibernation and resume There are quite a few GFP_KERNEL memory allocations made during suspend/hibernation and resume that may cause the system to hang, because the I/O operations they depend on cannot be completed due to the underlying devices being suspended. Avoid this problem by clearing the __GFP_IO and __GFP_FS bits in gfp_allowed_mask before suspend/hibernation and restoring the original values of these bits in gfp_allowed_mask durig the subsequent resume.
