Yep, sounds simple enough.

You can start with a coarse bisect by testing the major kernel versions
first, i.e. 3.11, 3.10, 3.9 ... and once you find good and bad, then you
can do the git-bisect thing.

Also, you can check for BIOS updates for your machine and if there are,
check their changelogs whether they fix something suspend-related.

Good luck!
