Using this name from the outset would be nice, if you're happy to fold
that earlier in the seires. Not a big deal either way.

This looks fine for idle and suspend-to-ram, so:

Reviewed-by: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@xxxxxxx>

However, for suspend-to-disk (i.e hibernate), the kernel doing the
resume might have SSBD force-disabled, while this kernel (which has just
been resumed) wants it enabled.

I think we also need something in swsusp_arch_suspend(), right after the
call to __cpu_suspend_exit() to re-enable that.

Thanks,
Mark.
