They CPUs are taken down after suspending devices.  If you boot the
kernel with 'no_console_suspend' in the command line, there will be more
debug information to have a look at.

Also, you can do

# echo core > /sys/power/pm_test

before the '$ echo disk > /sys/power/state' (that only tests the suspend
sequence without actually hibernating) and see what symptoms will be
reproduced.

That last thing is probably the safest to do at the moment.

Apparently nmi_suspend() conflicts with oprofile somehow.  Also, the offlining
of non-boot CPUs may confuse it.  It would be helpful to check if the CPU
hotplug works with oprofile.
