i think it's a me, too. it happens about every 5th time when my laptop tries to wake up from sleep. it got introduced somewhat recently, because i keep my debian testing more or less up to date, and it started to happen about a month ago.
on debian testing, on a Dell Latitude E6320: Linux xxx 3.2.0-3-amd64 #1 SMP Thu Jun 28 09:07:26 UTC 2012 x86_64 GNU/Linux below are some pieces of backtraces that i copied by hand. unfortunately the screen gets updated every few seconds with different backtraces (of different CPU's?), so i could only copy portions of the backtraces. a newline below means its from a different backtrace.
