Updating the BIOS was the first thing I did when I got the machine, 
maybe two month ago. And only after that update suspend to disk began to 
work at least.

What about doing it the other way round: Forcing the kernel to apply the 
HPA on resume? Whitout knowing if this is possible at all with 
reasonable effort, it would bring us in sync having the HPA enabled for 
both bootup and resume, right?
The only drawback would be that we stay having only the 128GiB available.

I'd assume that Windows XP may do it this way, as suspend to ram does 
work there and it also only sees the 128GiB.
