Currently the only way to specify a hibernate offset for a swap
file is on the kernel command line.

This makes some changes to improve:
1) Add a new /sys/power/disk_offset that lets userspace specify
the offset and disk to use when initiating a hibernate cycle.

2) Adjust /sys/power/resume interpretation to also read in an
offset.

Actually klibc's /bin/resume has supported passing a hibernate
offset in since 20695264e21dcbde309cd81f73cfe2cea42e779d.

The kernel was just lobbing anything after the device specified
off the string.  Instead parse that and populate hibernate offset
with it.

---
An alternative to introducing a new sysfs parameter may be to document
setting these values via /sys/power/resume.  If the wrong signature is found
on the swapfile/swap partition by the kernel it does show an error
but it updates the values and they'll work when actually invoked later.

In that case it may make sense to adjust that error and make it level
info and explain the situation.

Read is okay per se (not consistent though), showing is not.
It might break an ABI.

Don't you need to document new node?

I'm not sure first part even needed, but okay, it's in original code.

Side notes.
This whole dance b/c of high probability of '\n' at the end which
breaks _some_ kernel parsers.
It might make sense to do a wrapper and call the guts of this function
with or without memory allocation depending on presence of '\n'.

This is not needed to be removed.

Ouch. I guess it's only for RFC.

This is effectively

if (last && *(last+1)) {
  int ret = kstrtoull(...&swsusp_resume_block...);
  if (ret)
   ...warn?..
}

???
Why not traditional 0?

Right this is part of why I was proposing making a new attribute.

The current RFC implementation I sent keeps the read output the
same for /sys/power/resume.

Yes, I wanted to get feedback before I reworked documentation and that's
why I implemented both approaches right now.

Maybe both even make sense.
When I resubmit as a patch I'll make sure documentation is updated.

Yes I was having problems originally and it was debug, it won't
be there when submitted for application.

I'll have to look more closely, but if this simplification
works I'll switch over.

You also need to retain the write behavior of it.

A new attribute is fine if it helps, but the behavior of the existing
one cannot change (both sides).
