Thanks for the patch, good news, it did fix the problem.
I did 2 builds and both worked OK over the s2ram cycle.

It will be necessary to add the patch to 4.15-stable and 4.14-stable, I 
believe that both have now broken s2ram.

I will build tomorrow 4.15 and 4.14 with your patch and try it out - the 
patch seems to apply OK to 4.15.7 and 4.14.23...

Thanks, Woody
