From: Stefan Seyfried At some point after 2.6.13, in-kernel software suspend got "incomplete" for the so-called "platform" mode. pm_ops->prepare() is never called. A visible sign of this is the "moon" light on thinkpads not flashing during suspend. Fix by readding the pm_ops->prepare call during suspend. Signed-off-by: Stefan Seyfried Acked-by: "Rafael J.
