Daniel: Sorry, I should have been more specific. I was intending to ask for the trace from the systemtap case, since I was looking at the messages from the systemtap logs.

It does look like the same or an extremely similar failure -- no sufficient address range in the vmalloc area to satisfy the allocations nouveau is making during suspend.

But I don't think what you see with systemtap is the same bug as what you're seeing without it. The bug you see with systemtap is recoverable (you've seen it recover in fact) and happens during suspend. The bug without it is on the resume side and isn't recovering. As a result I don't think systemtap is adding any useful information for this bug.

Have you tried a serial console to see if you can get more data during resume? I assume you don't have a serial port on the machine, but sometimes you can still get data with console on a USB serial adapter. It may or may not work, but if you have access to an adapter it might be worth trying.
