Well that exactly what happens on hibernation. The firmware keycheck
is failing and vce breaks. I have been trying to make it works but
even putting it at same location is not enough. This is only an issue
with hibernation, and module load/unload, suspend is fine as hw is
powercycle. So this patch will not break anything that does already
work. It only make code follow what other part of the code does.

Cheers,
Jérôme
