+		which is hard-coded to 'standby' (Power-On Suspend), 'mem'
+		(Suspend-to-RAM), and 'disk' (Suspend-to-Disk).

+		Writing to this file one of these strings causes the system to

+Date:		August 2006
+Contact:	Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>
+Description:
+		The /sys/power/disk file controls the operating mode of the
+		suspend-to-disk mechanism.  Reading from this file returns
+		the name of the method by which the system will be put to
+		sleep on the next suspend.  There are four methods supported:
+		'firmware' - means that the memory image will be saved to disk
+		by some firmware, in which case we also assume that the
+		firmware will handle the system suspend.
+		'platform' - the memory image will be saved by the kernel and
+		the system will be put to sleep by the platform driver (e.g.
+		ACPI or other PM registers).
+		'shutdown' - the memory image will be saved by the kernel and
+		the system will be powered off.
+		'reboot' - the memory image will be saved by the kernel and
+		the system will be rebooted.
+
+		The suspend-to-disk method may be chosen by writing to this
+		file one of the accepted strings:
+
+		'firmware'
+		'platform'
+		'shutdown'
+		'reboot'
+
+		It will only change to 'firmware' or 'platform' if the system
+		supports that.

+Contact:	Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>
+Description:
+		The /sys/power/image_size file controls the size of the image
+		created by the suspend-to-disk mechanism.  It can be written a
+		string representing a non-negative integer that will be used
+		as an upper limit of the image size, in bytes.  The kernel's
+		suspend-to-disk code will do its best to ensure the image size
+		will not exceed this number.  However, if it turns out to be
+		impossible, the kernel will try to suspend anyway using the
+		smallest image possible.  In particular, if "0" is written to
+		this file, the suspend image will be as small as possible.
+
+		Reading from this file will display the current image size
+		limit, which is set to 500 MB by default.

+Date:		August 2006
+Contact:	Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>
+Description:
+		The /sys/power/pm_trace file controls the code which saves the
+		last PM event point in the RTC across reboots, so that you can
+		debug a machine that just hangs during suspend (or more
+		commonly, during resume).  Namely, the RTC is only used to save
+		the last PM event point if this file contains '1'.  Initially
+		it contains '0' which may be changed to '1' by writing a
+		string representing a nonzero integer into it.
+
+		To use this debugging feature you should attempt to suspend
+		the machine, then reboot it and run
+
+		dmesg -s 1000000 | grep 'hash matches'
+
+		CAUTION: Using it will cause your machine's real-time (CMOS)
+		clock to be set to a random invalid time after a resume.

+		Chapter 16: Function return values and names
+
+Functions can return values of many different kinds, and one of the
+most common is a value indicating whether the function succeeded or
+failed.  Such a value can be represented as an error-code integer
+(-Exxx = failure, 0 = success) or a "succeeded" boolean (0 = failure,
+non-zero = success).
+
+Mixing up these two sorts of representations is a fertile source of
+difficult-to-find bugs.  If the C language included a strong distinction
+between integers and booleans then the compiler would find these mistakes
+for us... but it doesn't.  To help prevent such bugs, always follow this
+convention:
+
+	If the name of a function is an action or an imperative command,
+	the function should return an error-code integer.  If the name
+	is a predicate, the function should return a "succeeded" boolean.
+
+For example, "add work" is a command, and the add_work() function returns 0
+for success or -EBUSY for failure.  In the same way, "PCI device present" is
+a predicate, and the pci_dev_present() function returns 1 if it succeeds in
+finding a matching device or 0 if it doesn't.
+
+All EXPORTed functions must respect this convention, and so should all
+public functions.  Private (static) functions need not, but it is
+recommended that they do.
+
+Functions whose return value is the actual result of a computation, rather
+than an indication of whether the computation succeeded, are not subject to
+this rule.  Generally they indicate failure by returning some out-of-range
+result.  Typical examples would be functions that return pointers; they use
+NULL or the ERR_PTR mechanism to report failure.
