It seems to handle the resume process normally but at the moment I should see Gnome login screen, I either get a black screen with just a white underscore instead, or nothing displayed at all (no backlight). I can't do anything at that point and I have to hard reboot.

da6d9c8ecd00e2 is known to cause a NULL pointer deref on resume,
which is likely what is happening here. This is fixed by:

This patch is ready for merging and is waiting for the wireless-maintainer
to merge it and send it to Linus.
