You did have a kernel update.

You must have been upgrading this system for quite a while. The debug
kernel modules got accidentally pulled in back then. You can do "dnf
remove kernel-debug*" to get rid of those.
I have no idea why hibernate stopped working, but it seems to not like
something the BIOS is doing.
Dell systems recently got BIOS updates. My newest Dell system did a 2-step
BIOS firmware
update dance. The updates are dated May 22.
" - Firmware updates to address security vulnerabilities including (Common
Vulnerabilities
and Exposures - CVE) such as CVE-2022-0004, CVE-2022-0005, CVE-2022-21123,
CVE-2022-21125, CVE-2022-21127, CVE-2022-21151, CVE-2022-21166, and
CVE-2022-21181"
These might have introduced something in the BIOS that kernels "don't
like". I see a bunch of
driver firmware updates around the same time. If these are problematic
there may be reports for
for other distros.
