Comment 19 for bug 36944

Hi Pavel,

I have the following backtrace recorded in an Ubuntu bug-report:

  https://launchpad.net/bugs/36944

  swsusp: Reading pagedir (125 pages)
  busybox: page allocation failure. order:0, mode:0x8020
   [__alloc_pages+494/736] __alloc_pages+0x1ee/0x2e0

   [sys_write+56/128] sys_write+0x38/0x80
   [syscall_call+7/11] syscall_call+0x7/0xb

This is using a initiated from an initramfs (that's what the busybox process
is) with:

  if [ -e /sys/power/resume ]; then
      major=$((0x$(stat -c%t ${resume})))
      minor=$((0x$(stat -c%T ${resume})))
      echo ${major}:${minor} >/sys/power/resume
  fi

Any idea how swsusp can end up in this state? The affect of this is that
the syscall fails and bootup proceeds normally.

Many Thanks,

 -Paul
