This isn't the way to fix it. The hibernation file/partition should really be 
independent
of swap, because 1) you can't be sure how much swap will actually be used by 
the applications
so you can't be sure you'll ever have enough swap to save the RAM 2) Too much 
swap and the
(lack of) interactivity will make you want to advocate physical violence when 
your machine
is unusable for an hour because of a hungry Javascript in your 50th Firefox tab.

I requested a hibernation partition that wasn't a swap partition:
https://wiki.gnome.org/BastienNocera/KernelWishlist
but it was deemed unnecessary by kernel devs (or work-aroundable maybe):

We need to fix the kernel first, then we can ask for support in Anaconda.
