Subject[PATCH] [resend] Resume from hibernation fails with pata_it821x RAID volume
From
Date
Hello,
hibernation didn't work for me since I started to use IT8212 controller. Now I
did some debugging (booting with no_console_suspend init=/bin/sh).

Found that resume fails (2.6.28) with "serial number mismatch 'some
garbage' != 'some other garbage'" and "revalidation failed" messages. That's
because the controller firmware fills different serial number in the IDENTIFY
every boot.

The patch below fixes the resume simply clearing the serial number. The proper
fix would be probably to fill in the serial number of the RAID volume
instead. I assume that there must be something like that stored on the drives
but I don't know where.


Fix resume on pata_it821x RAID volume by clearing the serial number in
IDENTIFY data, which is otherwise different on each boot.
