Before commit 1bb20571dcf0edfc ("ARM: 8470/1: mm: flip priority of
CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA"):
# CONFIG_ARM_KERNMEM_PERMS is not set
Freezing user space processes ... (elapsed 0.001 seconds) done.
Freezing remaining freezable tasks ... (elapsed 0.003 seconds) done.
PM: suspend of devices complete after 112.163 msecs

Disabling non-boot CPUs ...
CPU1: shutdown
After the offending commit:
CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_ALIGN_RODATA=y
The "problem" is that DEBUG_RODATA now defaults to y on CPU_V7, so it gets
enabled for shmobile_defconfig. If I manually disable DEBUG_RODATA again,
s2ram does work.
The real problem is something else, though. I can trigger the same panic
without the offending commit by enabling:
CONFIG_ARM_KERNMEM_PERMS=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA=y
I never enabled those options before, so I have no idea if this is a recent
regression. I've just tried a few older versions: on v4.4-rc1 I see the same
panic, on v4.3 (and v4.3.3) I don't see the panic, and the "CPU1: shutdown"
line, but the system doesn't wake up.
Thanks for your suggestions!
