I'm experiencing a very similar behavior on my ThinkPad X250 attached to a
dock. It doesn't happen every time I resume, but quite often these days (on
4.18.8-1). Unplugging an USB3 disk plugged to the dock fixed the problem for
me, and replugging it worked as well, so maybe there's some kind of loop I
managed to break with that.

I also noticed https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1325488 on the
exact same setup, but there's no other info there.

I'll try to dig upstream, but unfortunately it's not that easily reproducible
here.
