HP OmniBook Ultra suspend (s2ram) solution

Hi,
firstly thanks for putting this distro together, its a blessing to be able to install Gentoo easily!

This is for a HP OmniBook Ultra 14.

# inxi
CPU: 12-core AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 375 w/ Radeon 890M (-MT MCP-)

After editing /etc/elogind/logind.conf to enable suspend, it wouldn't  "suspend".
This was using s2ram (sys-power/suspend-1.0_p20200924 (/usr/sbin/s2ram)) with kernel linux-6.12.50-redcore-lts-r1

I know it was possible with the stock sys-kernel/gentoo-kernel-bin.
After futzing about in /etc/portage/package.unmask and friends, kernel 6.17.2-gentoo-dist is now installed, up and running.

by adding these:

/etc/portage/package.unmask/00-sys-kernel-custom

sys-kernel/dracut

/etc/portage/package.use/00-sys-kernel-custom

sys-kernel/installkernel        dracut

/etc/portage/profile/use.mask/00-unmask-custom

-dracut

/etc/portage/package.unmask/00-sys-kernel-custom

sys-kernel/dracut

/etc/portage/package.use/00-sys-kernel-custom

sys-kernel/installkernel        dracut

/etc/portage/package.mask/00-sys-kernel

sys-kernel/dracut::gentoo

An edit to /etc/elogind/logind.conf to enable suspend:

HandleSuspendKey=suspend
HandleLidSwitch=suspend                                                                                                 
HandleLidSwitchExternalPower=suspend                                                                                    
HandleLidSwitchDocked=suspend 

Now it sleeps with the lid closed!
