Currently, SATA can be initialized > after swsusp, leading to swsusp not finding its image and failing... How can sata be initialised after swsusp? Are they each using correctly prioritised initcall levels? If so then the problem is presumably that sata initialisation is started before swsusp initialisation, but sata completes _after_ swsusp initialisation has run. In which case the as-yet-untested drivers-wait-for-threaded-probes-between-initcall-levels.patch should fix this. Greg, I think I'll send vmlinuxlds-consolidate-initcall-sections.patch into Linus for 2.6.19, make things easier for everyone. I'll send both patches.
