Success! With this (and the 7.0 snapshot I installed yesterday; dmesg
in my message <https://marc.info/?l=openbsd-misc&m=163289489310163&w=1>)
the problem is gone, and my T580 now does suspend/resume perfectly
(including idling with CPU usage under 1%).

A big thank-you to Daniel and to jcs (I'm guessing that's Joshua Stein,
https://jcs.org/) for the solution, and to Theo and Mike for their
suggestions too!

Thanks again,
