Just my 2 cent here: No. The real fix it to get the work done upstream and fix remaining parts in our main kernel (if we have to). Putting a kernel in extras is a bad idea in general IMHO. We then probably would have to build kernel modules for them, too. And other people probably would start submitting other Kernels (with the realtime patches for example). This would probably end soon in a great unsupportable mess with a small benefit. "Upstream" really is the best solution. BTW: From reading LKML it seems that Rafael J. Wysocki is quite active on making swsusp a lot better in the mainstream kernel. That work needs help and testing. Helping a separate project that for a long time failed to merge the code with the kernel is IMHO the wrong approach and probably a dead end.
