Sure, adding it to
/usr/lib/hal/scripts/linux/hal-system-power-suspend-linux
or a script in /etc/acpi/resume.d/ (depending on the distribution)
does the trick.

However it would be necessary to be included in quite a few
distributions: Ubuntustudio, 64studio, AVlinux, JACKlab, etc. It would
be better if the problem could be solved at the source.

Anyways, can anyone explain why only a particular set of IRQ-threads are
affected by this issue?
