Please look at -mm.

We have

int hibernation_platform_enter(void)
{
	int error;

	if (hibernation_ops) {
		kernel_shutdown_prepare(SYSTEM_SUSPEND_DISK);
		/*
		 * We have cancelled the power transition by running
		 * hibernation_ops->finish() before saving the image, so we
		 * should let the firmware know that we're going to enter the
		 * sleep state after all
		 */
		error = hibernation_ops->prepare();
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
		if (!error)
			error = hibernation_ops->enter();
	} else {
		error = -ENOSYS;
	}
	return error;
}

in there, which is exactly that.

The patch is necessary. :-)  Otherwise ->prepare() will be called twice in a row.

Greetings,
Rafael
