Hmm... sorry about that. Can you please boot with `console_no_suspend` and
retry? Once the system gets stuck, you can wait for several minutes till the
workqueue watchdog triggers and dumps the state or, if you can, trigger
`sysrq-t` which has workqueue state dump at the end.

If the system doesn't become live enough after suspend/resume cycle to get
more info, the following might help:

$ echo test_resume > /sys/power/disk
$ echo disk > /sys/power/state

That should walk most of the hibernation/wakeup path which is pretty simliar
to suspend/resume path without touching system power state.

Thanks.
