      Pull virtio S3 support patches from Amit Shah:
       "Turns out S3 is not different from S4 for virtio devices: the device
        is assumed to be reset, so the host and guest state are to be assumed
        to be out of sync upon resume.  We handle the S4 case with exactly the
        same scenario, so just point the suspend/resume routines to the
        freeze/restore ones.
      
        Once that is done, we also use the PM API's macro to initialise the
        sleep functions.
      
        A couple of cleanups are included: there's no need for special thaw
        processing in the balloon driver, so that's addressed in patches 1 and
        2.
      
        Testing: both S3 and S4 support have been tested using these patches
        using a similar method used earlier during S4 patch development: a
        guest is started with virtio-blk as the only disk, a virtio network
        card, a virtio-serial port and a virtio balloon device.  Ping from
        guest to host, dd /dev/zero to a file on the disk, and IO from the
        host on the virtio-serial port, all at once, while exercising S4 and
        S3 (separately) were tested.  They all continue to work fine after
        resume.  virtio balloon values too were tested by inflating and
        deflating the balloon."
      
      Pulling from Amit, since Rusty is off getting married (and presumably
      shaving people).
