or alternatively we  could do what we do for suspend to RAM on other
platforms (PPC and APM) and just not use the freezer.

As a data point, I am running with this patch on top of 2.6.21.2 the
last 3+ weeks, with an average of 5/6 STR cycles a day, and had no
problems at all. (Sony vaio pcg-fx701). Just normal work, I didn't try
to stress the thing, but I have quite a few times suspended/resumed over
a big compile without a glitch.

What are the risks of this patch supposed to be?
