If /dev/hda6 is the swap partition, I've seen the same or similar
message when resume is looking for the suspended stuff on the swap
partition, but not the exit. It seems it's changed in 2.6.13-git10.
dmesg says (reboot with no suspend data in swap) ---
Kernel command line: root=/dev/hda1 vga=0x317 selinux=1 splash=silent
resume=/dev/hda2 3
swsusp: Error -22 check for resume file

Other kernels I assume boot without problems.

"make oldconfig" or make config/menuconfig/xconfig was done? I normally
do "make oldconfig" so it picks up the old stuff and prompts for
anything new that may be needed - happens, then "make && make
modules_install", "make" builds both bzImage and the modules. The SuSE
udev is not the latest and some modules will don't get loaded as
expected, but these can either be built-in or put in
/etc/sysconfig/kernel to be loaded at boot. I build in most of the
hardware that's a must, network, mouse, etc., SuSE has to cater for all
types of hardware, so I prune my config to suit the hardware I have.
INITRD_MODULES=""
