I'm not entirely clear on this. Surely all that's needed for LVM and encryption support is for that to be set up in userspace and then allow userspace to trigger a second attempt at resume? I have a hacky patch for swsusp that allows that (at the moment it just adds a "resume" method to /sys/power/state), which gives you the functionality without the module pain.
