Hm, I wonder why 'platform' isn't there.

Perhaps the dmesg log will tell.

[/me looks]

No, it doesn't. The BIOS evidently supports S4.

[/me looks into the source code]

I have no idea whatsoever how it is possible to have

"ACPI: (supports S0 S1 S3 S4 S5)"

in the log and not to have "platform" in the output of "cat /sys/power/disk".

Can you please add

printk(KERN_CRIT "PM: hibernation_ops = %p\n", hibernation_ops);

at the end of kernel/power/disk.c:hibernation_set_ops() and see if it gets
printed during boot?

Thanks,
Rafael
