This mode is to verify if the snapshot data written to
swap device can be successfully restored to memory. It
is useful to ease the debugging process on hibernation,
since this mode can not only bypass the BIOSen/bootloader,
but also the system re-initialization.
For example:
$ sudo echo snapshot > /sys/power/disk
$ sudo echo disk > /sys/power/state
/* manual resume.*/
$ sudo echo 8:3 > /sys/power/resume
