[PATCH] swsusp: Use memory bitmaps during resume

Make swsusp use memory bitmaps to store its internal information during the
resume phase of the suspend-resume cycle.

If the pfns of saveable pages are saved during the suspend phase instead of
the kernel virtual addresses of these pages, we can use them during the resume
phase directly to set the corresponding bits in a memory bitmap.  Then, this
bitmap is used to mark the page frames corresponding to the pages that were
saveable before the suspend (aka "unsafe" page frames).

Next, we allocate as many page frames as needed to store the entire suspend
image and make sure that there will be some extra free "safe" page frames for
the list of PBEs constructed later.  Subsequently, the image is loaded and, if
possible, the data loaded from it are written into their "original" page
frames (ie.  the ones they had occupied before the suspend).

The image data that cannot be written into their "original" page frames are
loaded into "safe" page frames and their "original" kernel virtual addresses,
as well as the addresses of the "safe" pages containing their copies, are
stored in a list of PBEs.  Finally, the list of PBEs is used to copy the
remaining image data into their "original" page frames (this is done
atomically, by the architecture-dependent parts of swsusp).
