This panic is also reflect to the memory size changed by user when
machine in S4 state, BIOS should update hardware_signature to raise
memory changed.

Does it a good idea don't panic here if memory size changed?

Should we need try to detect the change of memory or touchpad for know
should we panic or not?

On the other hand, I saw another BIOS changed hardware_signature because
the VGA detect output resolution changed when S4 resume. It's a problem
for sometimes BIOS widely used hardware_signature on non-critical
hardware change.


Thanks a lot!
