Probably more. :-(

Unfortunately, we had too many changes affecting suspend-resume during this
cycle, but that only turned out after the fact.  Moreover, all of them were
done in response to problem reports, but our fixes happened to break things on
systems that were not affected by the original issues being fixed.

Actually, I can.
