Caused by this change:
http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=ce007ea59729d627f62bb5fa8c1a81e25653a0ad

Long story short, the quirk unhiding the Intel 82801 SMBus can cause
major trouble on resume. Thus it was disabled when suspend support is
included in the kernel. You have to disable ACPI sleep states if you
want it back.
