Hi there, I finally managed to do a bisect on this. It took a while because the good and bad kernels were in non-linear branches so I had to do 14 kernel builds on my ancient laptop!

This is the end of the trail:

$ git bisect bad
24576d23976746cb52e7700c4cadbf4bc1bc3472 is the first bad commit
commit 24576d23976746cb52e7700c4cadbf4bc1bc3472

    drm/i915: enable VT switchless resume v3

    With the other bits in place, we can do this safely.

    v2: disable backlight on suspend to prevent premature enablement on resume
    v3: disable CRTCs on suspend to allow RTD3 (Kristen)

What do I do now?
