Hibernation: Arbitrary boot kernel support - generic code

Browse source

Add the bits needed for supporting arbitrary boot kernels to the common
hibernation code.

To support arbitrary boot kernels, make it possible to replace the 'struct
new_utsname' and the kernel version in the hibernation image header by some
architecture specific data that will be used to verify if the image is valid
and to restore the image.
