Suspend to RAM process is returning to userspsace with DS set to KERNEL_DS
after resume, this cause general protection fault. This is very difficult
to reproduce, but this does happen on 32 bit systems. This crash is not
reproduced after save/restore DS during calls to _save_processor_state/
__restore_processor_state respectively.
Similar issue was reported in the past
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=61781, for which the root cause
was not identified.
