Well, the WARN_ON() in arch/x86_64/kernel/acpi/sleep.c:init_low_mapping()
triggers every time an SMP x86_64 box is suspended to disk using the platform
mode (default), which is quite annoying IMHO and users think something wrong is
going on.  This will probably cause them to report the problem and I'd rather
like to avoid handling these reports. ;-)
