I can try to get it merged into the stable tree. Do you really think
it passes the 'that's not good' rule ?

  "It must fix a problem that causes a build error (but not for things
   marked CONFIG_BROKEN), an oops, a hang, data corruption, a real
   security issue, or some "oh, that's not good" issue.  In short, something
   critical."

Is the inability to resume properly a critical issue from a kernel POV ?
