Ok I redid the patch following exactly what Sergey and Randy said. This
problem happens on any computer that has HPA on their drive when they
come back from resume so I don't think you have to only test this with
Thinkpad users. Anyway my only question is how to I get my patched
signed off by someone?

Thanks for all your help!
