Subject: [PATCH] pm_trace is dangerous

CONFIG_PM_TRACES scrogs your RTC.  Mark it as experimental, and defaulting to
`off'.

Also beef up the help message a bit.

 	This enables some cheesy code to save the last PM event point in the
 	RTC across reboots, so that you can debug a machine that just hangs
 	during suspend (or more commonly, during resume).
 
+	To use this debugging feature you should attempt to suspend the machine,

+
+		dmesg -s 1000000 | grep 'hash matches'

+	CAUTION: this option will cause your machine's real-time clock to be
