[Bug 14908] swsusp fails after automatic kernel upgrade

Public bug reported:

suspend-to-disk appears to work very well except for one thing...

If the kernel is upgraded, the machine still suspends.  However, when it tries
to resume, the suspended image complains of "version mismatch" and fails.  All
data on the suspended image to be lost.  Because kernel upgrades are now an
automatic process, the user is unlikely to realize that it has even happened. 
At least, I didn't.


Steps to reproduce:

1. upgrade your kernel
2. run /etc/acpi/hibernate.sh
3. Try to resume.  It will fail and all data will be lost.

This is with Hoary on an IBM T23 laptop.
