It can be a bug in the nouveau driver, like this:

New: Backlight off after suspend-to-disk on Powerbook   
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=31120

or this one:

Brightness stuck to low value after suspend/resume
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=39550

You can:

- Try blacklisting nouveau for hibernating
- Try with another driver (the nvidia closed one)
