Hmm, on looking closer with Rafael, we discovered that
this isn't the EC malfunctioning, these messages result
from us disabling the EC via acpi_ec_block_transactions().

Apparently you've got a thermal zone with polling enabled
every 30 seconds.  These are quite rare, I've only seen
them on asus boxes.  This timeout happened during suspend
when EC was disabled and thus the message.  We should have 
frozen that work-queue...

I don't know if fixing that symptom will fix the suspend
problem, but it can't hurt.
