The preferred way of doing this is via Kconfig, please.  ie: add a
CONFIG_HIBERNATION_HEADER to arch/x86_64/Kconfig.

Given that these are called from non-arch-specific code, they must have the
same signature across all architectures.  So there's no point in putting
the prototypes into an arch-specific header file.

It would be better to do something like this in (say) suspend.h:

#ifdef CONFIG_HIBERNATION_HEADER
extern int arch_hibernation_header_save(void *addr, unsigned int max_size);
extern int arch_hibernation_header_restore(void *addr);
#else
static inline int arch_hibernation_header_save(void *addr,
						unsigned int max_size)
{
	return 0;
}

static inline int arch_hibernation_header_restore(void *addr)
{
	return 0;
}
#endif

then go nuke some ifdefs from the .c files.
