 Description:
 		Each USB device directory will contain a file named
 		power/level.  This file holds a power-level setting for
-		the device, one of "on", "auto", or "suspend".
+		the device, either "on" or "auto".
 
 		"on" means that the device is not allowed to autosuspend,
 		although normal suspends for system sleep will still
 		be honored.  "auto" means the device will autosuspend
 		and autoresume in the usual manner, according to the
-		capabilities of its driver.  "suspend" means the device
-		is forced into a suspended state and it will not autoresume
-		in response to I/O requests.  However remote-wakeup requests
-		from the device may still be enabled (the remote-wakeup
-		setting is controlled separately by the power/wakeup
-		attribute).

+		level.  The "on" level is meant for administrative uses.
 		If you want to suspend a device immediately but leave it
 		free to wake up in response to I/O requests, you should
 		write "0" to power/autosuspend.
 
+		Device not capable of proper suspend and resume should be
+		left in the "on" level.  Although the USB spec requires
+		devices to support suspend/resume, many of them do not.
+		In fact so many don't that by default, the USB core
+		initializes all non-hub devices in the "on" level.  Some
+		drivers may change this setting when they are bound.

+What:		/sys/devices/system/memory/soft_offline_page
+Date:		Sep 2009
+KernelVersion:	2.6.33
+Contact:	andi@firstfloor.org
+Description:
+		Soft-offline the memory page containing the physical address
+		written into this file. Input is a hex number specifying the
+		physical address of the page. The kernel will then attempt
+		to soft-offline it, by moving the contents elsewhere or
+		dropping it if possible. The kernel will then be placed
+		on the bad page list and never be reused.
+
+		The offlining is done in kernel specific granuality.
+		Normally it's the base page size of the kernel, but
+		this might change.
+
+		The page must be still accessible, not poisoned. The
+		kernel will never kill anything for this, but rather
+		fail the offline.  Return value is the size of the
+		number, or a error when the offlining failed.  Reading
+		the file is not allowed.
