swsusp: free more memory

Move the definition of PAGES_FOR_IO to kernel/power/power.h and introduce
SPARE_PAGES representing the number of pages that should be freed by the
swsusp's memory shrinker in addition to PAGES_FOR_IO so that device drivers
can allocate some memory (up to 1 MB total) in their .suspend() routines
without causing the suspend to fail.
