This patch series increase security of suspend and hibernate actions. It allows
user to safely wipe crypto keys before suspend and hibernate actions starts
without race conditions on userspace process with heavy I/O.

To automatically wipe cryto key for <device> before hibernate action call:
$ dmsetup message <device> 0 key wipe_on_hibernation

To automatically wipe cryto key for <device> before suspend action call:
$ dmsetup message <device> 0 key wipe_on_suspend

To disable automatic wipe call retain_on_suspend/retain_on_hibernation.

Pali Rohár (3):
  PM suspend/hibernate: Call notifier after freezing processes
  dm: Export function dm_suspend_md()
  dm-crypt: Adds support for wiping key when doing suspend/hibernation
