I have the same problem on my machine. It does not matter if I enable
the freezer for suspend-to-ram or not. Hibernation (aka suspend-to-disk)
works though.

So AFAICS this is not related to the freezer.

If you have some time you could use "git bisect" to find the excat
commit which broke suspend. 2.6.24 was OK for me.
