Ok, can you try to disable cpufreq and cpuidle, and then try if it

At that point, this is the candidate:

commit e67ee10190e69332f929bdd6594a312363321a66
Merge: 21c806d 84c91b7 39c8bba 372ba8c

    Merge branches 'pm-sleep', 'pm-cpufreq' and 'pm-cpuidle'

Date:   Mon Aug 4 23:23:21 2014 +0800

    hibernate
        resuming, then it may cause page fault when writing image to
    snapshot
        buffer:
