+ *      Auxiliary structure used for reading the snapshot image data and
+ *      metadata from and writing them to the list of page backup entries
+ *      (PBEs) which is the main data structure of swsusp.
+ *
+ *      Using struct snapshot_handle we can transfer the image, including its
+ *      metadata, as a continuous sequence of bytes with the help of
+ *      snapshot_read_next() and snapshot_write_next().
+ *
+ *      The code that writes the image to a storage or transfers it to
+ *      the user land is required to use snapshot_read_next() for this
+ *      purpose and it should not make any assumptions regarding the internal
+ *      structure of the image.  Similarly, the code that reads the image from
+ *      a storage or transfers it from the user land is required to use
+ *      snapshot_write_next().
+ *
+ *      This may allow us to change the internal structure of the image
+ *      in the future with considerably less effort.
