Ok, bisect completed:

    [torvalds@...o linux]$ git bisect bad
    9c521a200bc3c12bd724e48a75c57d5358f672be is the first bad commit
    commit 9c521a200bc3c12bd724e48a75c57d5358f672be
    Author: Stephan Mueller <smueller@...onox.de>

        crypto: api - remove instance when test failed
    ...

and while I have no idea *why* it breaks iwlwifi after a
suspend/resume cycle, it is 100% repeatable. The bisect zoomed right
to that commit, and reverting it on top of the current tree also makes
everything work again.

So it gets reverted. I'll be happy to test things out, but with the
merge window *and* travel, I may or may not be quick about it.
