Which are all variations on a theme: add "resume=$SWAP" to your kernel
commandline, aren't they?

(No idea why that's needed since Fedora 22, but it cost me quite a bit
of head scratching to find out.)

Once that parameter was set hibernate functioned again on the few
laptops I, well, manage that run Fedora 22.
