Call it saved_tstate_msr maybe?

I would split the above into two functions, one for saving and one for
restoring ->

-> and decide here which one to invoke.

Does work_on_cpu() wait for the work to complete?

I don't think this is going to do what you really want.

Each of these notifiers is going to be invoked during both suspend and
resume, so I guess you only need one notifier?
