Suspend: Testing facility (rev. 2)

Introduce sysfs attribute /sys/power/pm_test allowing one to test the suspend
core code.  Namely, writing one of the strings:

freezer
devices
platform
processors
core

to this file causes the suspend code to work in one of the test modes defined as
follows:

freezer
- test the freezing of processes

devices
- test the freezing of processes and suspending of devices

platform
- test the freezing of processes, suspending of devices and platform global
  control methods(*)

processors
- test the freezing of processes, suspending of devices, platform global
  control methods and the disabling of nonboot CPUs

core
- test the freezing of processes, suspending of devices, platform global
  control methods, the disabling of nonboot CPUs and suspending of
  platform/system devices

(*) These are ACPI global control methods on ACPI systems

Then, if a suspend is started by normal means, the suspend core will perform
its normal operations up to the point indicated by given test level.  Next, it
will wait for 5 seconds and carry out the resume operations needed to transition
the system back to the fully functional state.

Writing "none" to /sys/power/pm_test turns the testing off.

When open for reading, /sys/power/pm_test contains a space-separated list of all
available tests (including "none" that represents the normal functionality) in
which the current test level is indicated by square brackets.
