    Google/Snow: Temporary fix for resume failure.
    
    The DDR3 memory initialization (with "mem_reset" set on normal boot) will cause
    resume to be unstable, especially when X is running. System may show X screen
    for few seconds, then crash randomly and unable to recover - although text
    console may still work for a while.  Probably caused by corrupted memory pages.
    
    'mem_reset' (which refers to RESET# in DDR3 spec) should be enabled according
    to DDR3 spec. But it seems that on Exynos 5, memory can be initialized without
    setting mem_reset for both normal boot and resume - at least no known failure
    cases are found yet.  So this can be a temporary workaround.
    
    Verified by booting a Google/Snow device with X Window and ChromeOS, entering
    browser session with fancy web pages, closing LID to suspend for 5 seconds, then
    re-opening to resume.  Suspend/resume worked as expected.
    
    Also tried the "suspend_stress_test" with X running and finished 100 iterations
    of suspend/resume test without failure.
