Want the completely honest answer?  :)  I have no clue, and thinking 
about suspend gives me a headache  Anytime I start reading the actual 
suspend code, I wind up either confused or depressed, or both.

We have emperical evidence that Jens' patch works on SATA, so see if the 
two patches can meet in the middle somewhere?
