I haven't been able to make suspend-resume work correctly on my t42p but
if the wlan LED is the same one controlled by the ath driver then you
might check the suspend-resume logic in the driver to make sure it
re-enables the gpio pin. I thought it did but given that I can't resume
properly it's hard to test...
