Hi -

No you shouldn't put your board-specific stuff down ./kernel/...

What I did in the past for this is make a simple device that represents 
the special board features, and use the suspend and resume device 
callbacks in there.

For example here's the implementation I wrote for an e-book reader

http://git.warmcat.com/cgi-bin/cgit/txtr-kernel/tree/arch/arm/mach-mx3/txtr-a-features.c?h=txtr-tracking

If you go down to line 677 you can see the suspend and resume handling.

If you rip all the other stuff out of the file and rename the functions, 
you then need to call platform_device_register() using the name of your 
driver (and arrange for the driver to be in Kconfig and Makefile, and 
selected in your .config).
