Hibernate and resume process submits individual IO requests for each page of the data, so use blk_plug to improve the batching of these requests. Testing this change with hibernate and resumes consistently shows merging of the IO requests and more than an order of magnitude improvement in hibernate and resume speed is observed. One hibernate and resume cycle for 16GB RAM out of 32GB in use takes around 21 minutes before the change, and 1 minutes after the change on a system with limited storage IOPS.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
