There is a problem with s2ram on 4.16, and it has now been propagated
to 4.15 and 4.14 stable updates.
It originates from

x86/mm: Fix overlap of i386 CPU_ENTRY_AREA with FIX_BTMAP
s2ram works OK on PAE kernels, breaks badly on non-PAE. I do not think
that the problem can be duplicated in VMPlayer, but it is 100%
reproducible on a "real" hardware.
System goes to sleep OK, but when woken - it reboots the PC.
The issue is tracked in Bugzilla bug 198763
