Thanks for the fix!

I made a double check of the patch :
"x86/e820: Prepare e280 code for switch to dynamic storage"
It looks like this patch has reallocate the e820 & e820_save to their actual size:
+	size = offsetof(struct e820map, map) + sizeof(struct e820entry) * e820->nr_map;
+	n = kmalloc(size, GFP_KERNEL);

however the previous patch to verify the md5 hash during hibernation will
use the original e820_map structure by sizeof(struct e820map), which might 
read invalid value after the latest patch applied. I think I need to modify the 
hibernation e820 checking patch to only generate  md5 digest based on the actual 
e820_save size by sizeof(struct e820entry) * e820->nr_map.

I don't have a machine in hand now, will test later and give feedback later. Thanks again!
