We've just now put out a one-liner patch to libata that fixes
resume on my own Inspiron, and for other machines as well.

Does it fix the problem here too? (copy of patch is attached)

Yes. I compiled 2.6.17-rc5 without it and verified the problem occurs,
then applied the patch and tried it again. This time it worked.

I can suspend AND hibernate with the patch.

Good! That patch is in the latest 2.6.17-rc*-git* now.

I still get the BUG message on resuming that I reported in bugzilla

Yup, pretty obvious bug in the acpi code.
Something probably needs to use GFP_ATOMIC there.
