F12 - partition damaged after hibernation on SDHC card

I opened new bug for my problem:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=556304

I also find similar bug, but it was for F11 - 523358, however my behaviour
is slightly different because my hibernation was never finished.

I did also two additional actions, but without positive results:
- I put my swap file into logical volume located on luks partition, so it
does not have random password anymore.
- I increased swap size to 1.5GB but and I checked that no swap was used
before hibernation - no luck.

Yes, sorry, sizes were in MB not kb.

I placed them into bug report. I don't think I have misconfiguration because
system is working really fine (apart for hibernation).

encryption?
I did not tried that yet, I just tried swap over luks over lvm and
corruption happened as well.

I actually find how to do swap file as a regular file by reading "man
mkswap", however I'm still not sure hibernation supports it.
