  - On Arm:
     - Ability to enable stack protector
+    - Support guest suspend/resume to/from RAM

 ### Removed
  - On x86:

According to your commit message, suspend/resume will only work for Arm64.
I think it would be good to mention that in the CHANGELOG.md as well.
Thank you for pointing that out — in this case, I forgot to drop
"arm64" from the commit message.
Then it makes sense to me to drop it in next patch series version.

For non-hardware domain guests, suspend/resume support is available
for both ARM32 and ARM64.
When PSCI SYSTEM_SUSPEND is triggered from the hardware domain, the
system ultimately uses
Host PSCI — that is, a full system suspend is performed.
Thanks for clarification.


Also, this implementation adds suspend/resume support via vPSCI, which
I believe is also worth noting in the CHANGELOG.md.
You're right — in this context, "guest suspend/resume" refers to
handling via the virtual PSCI (vPSCI) interface.
When regular PSCI is used, it's typically referred to as Host PSCI.
That sentence could probably be rephrased for better clarity. Thank you.
It would be nice.

Thanks.
