I did a couple of more tests after clean reboots, and 100% sure ways to
trigger the circular locking on my laptop are

  echo ondemand > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor
  s2disk

or

  echo 1401000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq 
  s2disk

or

  echo 1401000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq 
  s2disk


Note that "ondemand" and "1401000" are the default vaules, so I don't
actually change anything here.  The write is causing the problem, not
the value.  As expected, I guess.

Also note that boot vs non-boot cpu doesn't seem to matter.  Nor does
cancelling the hibernation.  The warning appears on hibernate - not on
resume.

Hope this helps.
