I can do that, yes.

As another datapoint:  I tried blindly applying the commit to 2.6.29. 
The resulting kernel was able to hibernate fine the first time.

I'm going to be annoying and try something slightly different.  In
theory, I should be able to find the "first bad commit" where
cherry-picking 1faa16d22 causes a problem.
