You're probably seeing this bug, where the GPU gets stuck in power-on
mode:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=866212

I've found that if you add 'i915.i915_enable_rc6=7' to your boot line,
it will work around the bug about 60-70% of the time.  When it
doesn't, suspending and resuming again (i.e. closing lid for a few
seconds and reopening) usually makes the workaround take hold.
