Thanks for your work! I just manged to suspend and resume a freshly booted 2.4.20 + "your latest patch" system ;-) I had to read the kernel source a hour to do so, because I use devfs and naively used resume=/dev/ide/host0/.... which obiously does not work. For now you might add to the docs that devfs users simply have to use the corresponding old /dev/hdX name. If I have too much time I'll take a look to make swsuspend devfs aware. But this might not be that soon :-( I'll report after more testing.
