You should call platform_finish() here, or device_resume() will not work
appropriately on some systems.

However, after platform_finish() has been executed, the ACPI firmware will
assume that the hibernation has been canceled, so you need to tell it that
you'd like to go into the low power state after all.

For this reason, you have to call hibernation_ops->start() once again
and the other functions like in the swsusp case, in that order.

This looks too fragile to my eyes.

Why don't you call hibernation_ops->enter() directly from the "kexeced" kernel?
