 @c6fcef92 Yeah, I realized I was able to trigger a crash dump with SysRq+c, even though my screen was blank or scrambled.

Congrats on your finding. My case is different. I know that it is somehow related to my NVMe disk. I can see blk_queue_enter() waiting for an event which never arrives.…

It only happens on battery power, so I'm going to check if it also fails after turning off autosuspend. 
 @c6fcef92 That's it! My laptop has just survived 10 suspend-resume cycles on battery power with autosuspend off, but it hanged on the first attempt on AC power with autosuspend enabled.

Is it too cynical to expect that (some) distributions would fix the issue by adding the following command to their suspend hook?

echo on > /sys/bus/scsi/devices/0\:0\:0\:0/power/control 
 @4dbba09d 

Congrats for getting further.

Too cynical? Well, I think this is nothing that should be dealt with on the distro level; the kernel should do "the right thing"™ by default
