Many IBM Thinkpad T4* models and some R* and X* with radeon video cards draw too much power when suspended to RAM, reducing drastically the battery lifetime. The solution is to enable suspend-to-D2 on these machines. They are whitelisted through their subsystem vendor/device ID. This fixes http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3022 The patch introduces a framework to alter the pm_mode and reinit_func fields of the radeonfb_info structure based on a whitelist. This should facilitate future hardware-dependent workarounds. The workaround for the Samsung P35 that is already in the radeonfb code has been rewritten using this framework. The behavior can be overridden with module options: i) video=radeonfb:force_sleep=1 enable suspend-to-D2 also on non-whitelisted machines (useful for testing new notebook models), ii) video=radeonfb:ignore_devlist=1 Disable checking the whitelist and do not apply any workarounds.
