So, LPM doesn't have anything to do with the problem. The fact that this only happens on specific machines is strange. Maybe the BIOS is doing something fishy to the controller on disk spindown during suspend. Can the BIOS tell that the system is going for suspend by the time sd suspend is called? I'll prep another patch which will make EH skip certain steps and ignore failures during suspend, which basically mimics what your patch does but in safer way.
