This might not be related, but may be it'll lead to something ... With Rafael's latest patches that you pulled, suspend-to-ram/resume works for me now. But I was still having problem with "hibernating" to disk. It turned out that the recent changes (past few weeks) caused the ACPI to failed when I tried to make the LED blink with "echo 2 blink >/proc/acpi/ibm/led". Used to work before. But, now it simply hang and can't suspend. Removiing the echo blink make suspend-to-disk works again. And I've also seen the case you mentioned where sometimes it couldn't suspend (either by closing the lid or running "echo mem >/sys/power/state") ... it seems to happen more often when the machine is under load ... happens a few time when I hurried to get off work and only realized when my backpack on my back was burning hot!!! Now I completed disabled CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI and CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_UNSAFE_LEDS and hopefully won't see anymore hangs before suspend.
