Ok, further info with 2.6.0:

- disabling i8042.c completely by adding return 0; to the start of
  i8042_init() allows the suspend hotkey to work, and it works
  multiple times!  The hibernate hotkey also works, but once the
  laptop has resumed from hibernate, it's no longer possible to
  suspend it.

- i8042_noaux=1 - this doesn't seem to make any difference, although
  this does appear to leave the CTR set as 0x65, which appears to be
  the BIOS-set value.

There seems to be more going on than just the CTR here - it seems that
this APM BIOS has some dislike for our i8042 driver.

Here's the boot messages under (a failing) 2.6.0:
