This patch adds support for and demonstrates the usage of an embedded
position independent executable (PIE). The goal is to allow the use of C
code in situations where carefully written position independent assembly
was previously required.

As suggested yesterday evening by Kevin Hilman, just adding my 2ct of
support.

This series looks exactly like the foundation I'll need at some point in the
(probably still distant) future to handle suspend on my Rockchip platform -
where like in your example stuff like putting the ram into selfrefresh has
to be done by the os.

just as it came up recently again for me and I couldn't find any newer version,
ist this series still on the table?

We have to maintain quite some patches, to keep pm working for our project, so we're interested to get this mainline, too. Is someone taking care of these issues? Or is there something i can do to help getting this done?

regards
pascal
