From c8eb8b4025175f967af0ba8e933f23aa9954dc35 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Rafael J. Wysocki" Date: Mon, 25 Sep 2006 23:32:56 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] PM: make it possible to disable console suspending Change suspend_console() so that it waits for all consoles to flush the remaining messages and make it possible to switch the console suspending off with the help of a Kconfig option.
