I am glad to hear that it works for somebody.  There is hope!  I have:

 kldunload if_iwn

in /etc/rc.suspend and:

 kldload if_iwn

in /etc/rc.resume.

On resume there are lots of

iwn0: iwn_mem_lock: could not lock memory

and

iwn0: iwn_transfer_microcode: could not load boot firmware
iwn0: iwn_transfer_firmware: could not load boot firmware, error 60
iwn0: iwn_init_locked: could not load firmware, error 60

I did just notice:

iwn0: Reg Domain: \M^?\M^?\M^?\M^?iwn0: iwn_mem_lock: could not lock memory

Maybe I should set the regulatory domain?  But having just spent a few
minutes trying, it doesn't seem to be interested...

lambert at slambert:~> sudo ifconfig wlan0 regdomain FCC
ifconfig: SIOCS80211: Device busy
Exit 1
lambert at slambert:~> sudo ifconfig iwn0 regdomain FCC
ifconfig: unable to get regulatory domain info: Invalid argument
Exit 1

Same result with the other regulatory domains.  Maybe iwn just doesn't
support it?

lambert at slambert:~> sudo ifconfig wlan0 list regdomain
:regdomain 0 country US anywhere -ecm



  http://www.lambertfam.org/~lambert/laptop/TravelMate_5720-6911  

has my rc.[suspend|resume] and dmesg.[boot|resume] showing the
issues.  Other stuff in there that might be relevant too, if anyone is
interested.
