I've tested the vanilla kernel 5.10.145 (it was the latest one week
ago) without Debian kernel patches, but using the kernel config file
from the latest kernel for Debian Stable:
- without the Karol's patch: it always fails both suspend to ram and
hibernate to disk with the usual behavior (a very long time to suspend
or hibernate, then it fails on resume with a garbled screen)
- with the Karol's patch: it succeeds both suspend and hibernate and
it correctly resumes afterwards.

The kernel was tested using the following graphic adapter:
Graphics:  Device-1: NVIDIA G96CM [GeForce 9600M GT] driver: nouveau v: kernel
          Device-2: Suyin Acer HD Crystal Eye webcam type: USB driver:
uvcvideo
          Display: x11 server: X.Org 1.20.11 driver: loaded:
modesetting unloaded: fbdev,vesa
          resolution: 1280x800~60Hz
          OpenGL: renderer: NV96 v: 3.3 Mesa 20.3.5

Therefore, 5.10.y series of the kernel need to be patched to work
correctly at least with the aforementioned graphic card.

The script I used to compile the kernel are attached for further
reference and verification.

Hope that helps.
