Set SATA mode to IDE on my machine can reproduce this problem.
The cause is that ata port async suspend was not enabled yet.

Linus,

Could you please try below patch?

Subject: [PATCH] ata: enable ata port async suspend

This saves devices suspend/resume time.

Tested system suspend/resume with SATA IDE/AHCI mode 3 times.
Below is the time took for devices suspend/resume.

SATA mode    vanilla-kernel           patched-kernel
---------    ---------------------    ---------------------
IDE          suspend: 0.744           suspend: 0.432
             (0.716, 0.768, 0.748)    (0.440, 0.428, 0.428)

             resume: 5.084            resume: 2.209
             (5.100, 5.064, 5.088)    (2.168, 2.232, 2.228)

AHCI:        suspend: 0.725           suspend: 0.449
             (0.740, 0.708, 0.728)    (0.456, 0.448, 0.444)

             resume: 2.556            resume: 1.896
             (2.604, 2.492, 2.572)    (1.932, 1.872, 1.884)
