[PATCH 0/3] dm-crypt: Adds support for wiping key when doing suspend/hibernation

[Pali RohÃr]

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 1

To automatically wipe cryto key for <device> before suspend action call:
$ dmsetup message <device> 0 key wipe_on_suspend 1

(Value 0 after wipe_* string reverts original behaviour - to not wipe key)

Pali RohÃr (3):
  PM suspend/hibernate: Call notifier after freezing processes
  dm: Export function dm_suspend_md()
