Yeah, Yo'av did you test further modifications that explicitly copy
the hash prefix? I assumed Nathan's change _plus some additional tweak
to copy not just imx6_suspend to OCRAM which I assume the code already
does, but I would imagine you need another change to copy
__kcfi_typeid_imx6_suspend into OCRAM just before the function.  Was
that tested?
