Subject: [BUG] Kernel panic when using Hibernation on kernel 6.1.25

Hi,

I encountered a kernel panic when using the Hibernation on kernel version 6.1.25. Below are the details of the issue:

**Description:**
When I enable CONFIG_HIBERNATION and assign a specific partition for hibernation resuming and perform a specific operation, the system crashes with a kernel panic.

CONFIG_HIBERNATION=y
CONFIG_PM_STD_PARTITION="/dev/mmcblk0p16"

**Steps to Reproduce:**
1.	Set printk to level 8: ` echo 8 > /proc/sys/kernel/printk`
2.	Set up the swap partition: ` mkswap /dev/mmcblk0p16`
3.	Enable the swap partition: ` swapon -p -3 /dev/mmcblk0p16`
4.	Configure hibernation resuming settings: ` echo "/dev/mmcblk0p16" > /sys/power/resume`
5.	Configure hibernation mode:` echo reboot > /sys/power/disk`
6.	Perform the operation: ` echo disk > /sys/power/state`
7.	Observe the kernel panic


**Expected Behavior:**
The operation should complete successfully without causing a kernel panic.

**Actual Behavior:**
The system crashes with a kernel panic.

**Environment:**
- Kernel version: 6.1.25
- Distribution: Yocto 4.0 32bit/Kernel 6.1.25 32bit
- Hardware: Arm Cortex A55, 1GB RAM

**Logs:**
