The warning is gone, so it definitely looks like you found a culprit, 
Thomas, thanks.

But I am not going to provide my Tested-by: yet, as one of the four 
suspend-resume cycles I have done during testing of this patch ended up 
with segfaults when trying to start any userspace binary after resume 
(i.e. clear memory corruption). The remaining three suspend-resume 
cycles were fine.

Will be looking into this a little bit more.
