Yes. I run them on my laptop, and while I don't do a _lot_ of
suspend/resume, I do some. My laptop right now is running a "just
after rc1" kernel, and has been for the last week, and has a couple of
suspends in that time. Type "closed my laptop, took it elsewhere,
opened it again", so more than a few minutes.

I think reporters should just say what distro they are running, and
systemd versions etc, and how they debugged this. Maybe the pattern is
obvious.

For the record, I just run plain F27, obviously with my own kernel
(and a tweaked config, but it approaches just being a "make
localmodconfig" of the distro config).
