Bug#489963: linux-image-2.6-amd64: Please enable USB_PERSIST on amd64

[S Hwang <hwst1@comcast.net>]

Package: linux-image-2.6-amd64
Version: 2.6.25+14
Severity: wishlist

Bug 468213 requested that USB_PERSIST be enabled in the standard Debian 
kernels to support suspend and resume on machines that keep important 
filesystems on memory card/flash device.  This bug was closed after 
USB_PERSIST was enabled for 686 (if I understand the changelog correctly 
- forgive me if I have misinterpreted it).  It would be helpful to also 
have this feature for amd64 (and perhaps other architectures, but amd64 
is what I use).  As far as I can tell, it is not enabled as of 
2.6.25-2-amd64.

Thanks
