Turns out it's brown paper bag time again. I had applied the preempt test
patch as well, and the two clash at least in via-pmu.c. So either apply
the preempt patch before applying the pmdisk suspend patch, or manually
apply all rejects that are caused by the clash (these appear to delete
lines containing preempt_disable() or preempt_enable()). In case deletion
of preempt related lines is all that's showing in the particular hunks,
the rejects can be safely ignored.
