commit a5511956b483e22cfebc0ebeb54d83c95f852648
Author: Stefan Monnier <address@hidden>
Commit: Stefan Monnier <address@hidden>

    New functions to switch back and forth to another major mode
    
    * subr.el (major-mode--suspended): New var.
    (major-mode-suspend, major-mode-restore): New funs, extracted from doc-view.
    * doc-view.el (doc-view--previous-major-mode): Remove.
    (doc-view-mode): Use major-mode-suspend.
    (doc-view-fallback-mode): Use major-mode-restore.
    * hexl-mode.el (hexl-mode--minor-mode-p, hexl-mode--setq-local): Remove.
    (hexl-mode): Use major-mode-suspend and hexl-follow-ascii-mode.
    (hexl-mode-exit): Use major-mode-restore.
    (hexl-activate-ruler, hexl-follow-line): Don't bother trying to preserve
    earlier state, now that entering/leaving hexl-mode kills local vars.
    (hexl-follow-ascii-mode): New proper local minor mode.
    (hexl-follow-ascii): Rewrite, using it.
    * image-mode.el (image-mode-previous-major-mode): Remove.
    (image-mode): Use major-mode-suspend.
    (image-mode-to-text): Use major-mode-restore.
