Right, so it's the suspend-must-disable-local-interrupts thing.  Again.
 create_image()'s local_irq_disable().

It was wrong to call work_on_cpu() with lcoal interrupts disabled, and
it's now wrong to call smp_call_function_single() with local interrupts
disabled.  It's just that smp_call_function_single() warns while
work_on_cpu() didn't.

That all explains the warning But afaik we still don't know why your
machine actually failed.  Perhaps it is a side-efect of emitting the
warning when the console is in a weird state?

So..  what to do?  Possibly we could hack cpufreq to not use
smp_call_function_single() if the call is to be done on the local CPU. 
But SMP might still be broken - if it really does want to do a cross-cpu
call.

Why does cpufreq need to do a cross-CPU get_cur_freq_on_cpu() call at
suspend time _anyway_?  Surely cpufreq knows the target CPU's frequency
from its internal in-main-memory state?
