Users can customize `before-save-hook' to add things like
`delete-trailing-whitespace' or `copyright-update'.  However, there are
cases where you want to save a buffer without running any save hooks
without changing your configuration and then changing it back.

I've attached a patch to make `save-buffer', when invoked with a
negative argument (C-u - C-x C-s), temporarily avoid running any save
hooks.
