It will be broken forever, since the kernel team can't support it, from what
I hear.
We should just remove hibernation support from the Fedora kernel.
No point in haggling about an easy way to opt-in to a feature that is not
supported.
The thing is, hibernate does work for some users. And eventually will
be made to work with secure boot as well. But it is very difficult for
us to "support" a feature when the fixes are often blacklist x driver
or edit your DSDT table. There is a large variety of hardware and
some of it just doesn't work.
