Retitling and reopening as per previous comment.

However, I still don't understand the rationale for having a machine type whitelist.; see (2) in comment 5. Do we have hard data that hibernation is consistently broken on some particular hardware, and the reason isn't just partitioning?

My gut feeling is that we should just disable hibernation by default, period (and perhaps provide an Ui configuration bit to enable it). Maintaining and checking a whitelist will just cause a lot of unnecessary effort which won't actually help a lot.
