Mauro Carvalho Chehab 151f4e2bdc docs: power: convert docs to ReST and rename to *.rst
Convert the PM documents to ReST, in order to allow them to
build with Sphinx.

The conversion is actually:
  - add blank lines and indentation in order to identify paragraphs;
  - fix tables markups;
  - add some lists markups;
  - mark literal blocks;
  - adjust title markups.

At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to
the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings.

swsusp/S3 tricks
================
Pavel Machek <pavel@ucw.cz>
If you want to trick swsusp/S3 into working, you might want to try:
* go with minimal config, turn off drivers like USB, AGP you don't
really need
* turn off APIC and preempt
* use ext2. At least it has working fsck. [If something seems to go
wrong, force fsck when you have a chance]
* turn off modules
* use vga text console, shut down X. [If you really want X, you might
want to try vesafb later]
* try running as few processes as possible, preferably go to single
user mode.
* due to video issues, swsusp should be easier to get working than
S3. Try that first.
When you make it work, try to find out what exactly was it that broke
suspend, and preferably fix that.
