Kernel panic? Weird.. I suspect something _else_ is wrong. I suggest trying
out the following:

1. My patches only touch cpufreq. So completely turn off cpufreq by setting
   CONFIG_CPU_FREQ=n. Then try suspend/resume and see how it goes. If it
   fails, that shows that something _else_ is wrong and you can try a git
   bisect for that.

   However, if suspend/resume succeeds with CONFIG_CPU_FREQ=n, then try out
   step 2 below.

2. Apply patch 1 (not the entire patchset)
   https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/7/11/661

   On top of that, apply this patch:
   https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/2827512/

   And then try suspend/resume with cpufreq turned on CONFIG_CPU_FREQ=y
   (and turning on other cpufreq Kconfig options which are of interest to
    you).


That should help us narrow down whether the suspend/resume issue is really
related to cpufreq or not.
