** Description changed:

  [Impact]
  
  * Using the device name on the kernel cmdline in the resume= option
  leads to failure to resume from hibernation when the device name is not
  stable, which can be the case for nvme drives.
  
  [Test Case]
  
  * Set up an EC2 instance to allow hibernation
  * Wait for hibinit-agent.service fully started
  * /etc/default/grub.d/99-set-swap.cfg should refer to the resume= partition 
by PARTUUID
  
  [Regression Potential]
  
  * Failure to discover PARTUUID makes the system unable to resume. A
  potential crash would cause the system unable to set up hibernation or
- unable to resume.
+ unable to resume. (On Focal PARTUUID is already in use, even without
+ this fix.)
  
  [Original Bug Text]
  
  When the agent inserts the resume device path and offset into the kernel
  cmdline, it uses device names such as the following:
  
  `resume_offset=223232 resume=/dev/nvme1n1p1`
  
  The issue is that `/dev/nvme1n1p1` is not static. On the reboot, the
  block device may appear at `/dev/nvme0n1p1` resulting in failure to find
  the swapfile used to suspend.
  
  The solution should be to use a persistent block device naming scheme.
