Hi,

starting from 2.6.27-rc1, my Laptop (Thinkpad T60) did not return from suspend to ram anymore.

When it should resume, the sleep LED went off, power went on, HD LED flashed once, but the display stayed black.

It worked perfectly in 2.6.26, so I bisected it:

PCI MSI: Don't disable MSIs if the mask bit isn't supported

David Vrabel has a device which generates an interrupt storm on the INTx
pin if we disable MSI interrupts altogether. Masking interrupts is only
a performance optimisation, so we can ignore the request to mask the
interrupt.

Reverting it was not a problem and fixed the issue.

As the screen stays black, I have no idea how to get further details on that problem. Which additional information should I provide? Netconsole didn't show anything.
