[Barada, Peter] Viabhav, I've also validated that the x-loader/u-boot/kernel built from the OMAPPSP_03.00.01.06 tags suspends on the DM3730EVM hardware.  I'llp ut together a set of patches to those and send you a pointer where to find them.  What I'm trying now is to cut board-omap3evm.c down to just the serial/mmc to see if the DM3730EVM shows the same effect; it could be that u-boot has put some of the hardware into a state that the kernel handles in the suspend path but my minimal kernel doesn't.  At least that would tell me I'm on the right path.
