When the kernel is configured to use the Thumb-2 instruction set
"suspend-to-memory" fails to resume. Observed on a Colibri iMX6ULL
(i.MX 6ULL) and Apalis iMX6 (i.MX 6Q).

It looks like the CPU resumes unconditionally in ARM instruction mode
and then chokes on the presented Thumb-2 code it should execute.

Fix this by using the arm instruction set for all code in
suspend-imx6.S.

You had a return to thumb at the end of this subroutine in the cover letter,
yet here it's omitted. Why?

Resent due to gmail adding HTML, sorry for the noise.

Now the whole subroutine is compiled for ARM and the return address has bit
0 set so that on jumping back to the caller the CPU will switch back to
Thumb-2.

Probably the return to Thumb-2 isn't needed in the cover letter solution
and it would also work to finish the subroutine in ARM instruction set.
However it looks strange to me if a function which begins with the ARM
instruction set would come to the return in Thumb-2.
