I started a bisect, see below. Well, it would be good if you could find the commit that broke things for you, but it might be a few different things - ACPI, PCI, graphics driver, etc. Please check if you can reproduce the symptom using pm_test: # echo core > /sys/power/pm_test # echo mem > /sys/power/state (it should simulate a suspend-resume cycle and get back to the command prompt in 5-10 sec). You can try to run that in a loop and see if that breaks things.
