I have a random desktop machine here, running Debian/sid with a 2.6.26
Debian kernel.  It has a two disk software RAID1, and apparently passes
through a suspend/resume cycle correctly, but...
I'm not sure if this is the same suspend/resume - there are after all several
Googleable reasons why one might suspend or resume various things - but it
might be worth a look at NeilB's recent post of a patch to "hopefully enable
suspend/resume of md devices":
http://marc.info/?l=linux-raid&m=123440845819870&w=2
No, that appears to be about suspending and resuming access to the
MD device while reconfiguring it; I don't /think/ that is accessed
during a system-wide suspend/resume (aka hibernate, or s2disk) cycle.

Certainly, it doesn't look like the path is invoked for that from my
reading of the code.
