Hi,

The appended patch fixes a regression and is considered as 2.6.26 material. Everyone having a box with working suspend to RAM is gently requested to test it and verify if it doesn't break things.

The patch applies to the current -git.

it's been under testing in tip/out-of-tree for about a week:

|     x86 ACPI: normalize segment descriptor register on resume

no problems caused by it so far.


It still seems incredibly risky to push this for 2.6.26, especially given the Elan revelation. I think it needs to be tested on the 2.6.27 track, and then possibly be pushed back via the 2.6.26-stable route.
