I'm not sure what you're suggesting here. Should we be reviewing the
~10,000 patches that go into a new kernel? Testing it on thousands of
different combinations of hardware? 2.6.34 went through several rounds
in updates-testing before being released. And let's face it, suspend
has always been a problem and probably always will, given the number
of different BIOS and firmware bugs it needs to work around.
