More data. I compiled 2.6.21.2 + the patch "Fix ACPI suspend / device
suspend ordering problem  (52ade9b3b97fd3bea42842a056fe0786c28d0555)

and I discovered that if I do not put the 3Com 3CXEM556B card into the
pcmcia slot, the suspend/resume (and the snapshot/restore) works ok,
without delay at all. It continues to work even with a cardbus wifi in
the slot, so my conclusions are that the probable culprit is restricted
to:

      *  a race when loading the .cis file from userspace
      * the serial_cs or 3c589_cs driver (only when the device is in;
        they are loaded still now and all is working ok)

...what now?
