ACPI: Store NVS state even when entering suspend to RAM
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13931 describes a bug where a system fails to successfully resume after the second suspend. Maxim Levitsky discovered that this could be rectified by forcibly saving and restoring the ACPI non-volatile state. The spec indicates that this is only required for S4, but testing the behaviour of Windows by adding an ACPI NVS region to qemu's e820 map and registering a custom memory read/write handler reveals that it's saved and restored even over suspend to RAM. We should mimic that behaviour to avoid other broken platforms. Signed-off-by: Matthew Garrett <mjg@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
