[Xen-devel] [PATCH v2 1/3] x86/ACPI: restore VESA mode upon resume from S3



In order for "acpi_sleep=s3_mode" to have any effect, we should record
the video mode we switched to during boot. Since right now there's mode
setting code for VESA modes only in the resume case, record the mode
just in that one case.

I'm wondering actually whether the user having to explicitly request the
mode restoration is a good model: Why would we _not_ want to restore the
mode we've set during boot? In the worst case Dom0 kernel or X will
change the mode another time.
