It did turn out to just need the dev parameter to be non null. I've gone through all the frame buffer drivers and done what I believe to be the right thing; if they're PCI based, they get the struct device pointer passed through, otherwise NULL is sent. The attached patch is against 2.6.9-rc1, and (combined with other code) allows the driver to remain active while we're suspending to disk.
