Subject[RFC 2/6] PM: Hibernate: Add option to disable disk offset randomization
Date
Add a kernel parameter to disable the disk offset randomization
for SSD devices in which such feature is available at the
firmware level. This is helpful in improving hibernation
resume time.

+ noswap_randomize
+ Kernel uses random disk offsets to help with wear-levelling
+ of SSD devices, while saving the hibernation snapshot image to
+ disk. Use this parameter to disable this feature for SSD
+ devices in scenarios when, such randomization is addressed at
+ the firmware level and hibenration image is not re-generated
+ frequently.
+ (Useful for improving hibernation resume time as snapshot pages
+ are available in disk serially and can be read in bigger chunks
+ without seeking)
