I'm not sure what you're seeing is really a kernel bug (unless you don't 
ship the latest OLPC kernel).
It works fine for me even across several hundred suspend/resume cycles 
(it gets woken about once per 1-2 minutes by IGMP queries from the AP), 
though this is with an otherwise unused WLAN, so rekeyings are infrequent. 
And rekeyings might be exactly what's causing you trouble: According to 
Dan Williams, the libertas chip doesn't wake us for these [1]. I haven't 
had time to verify that yet.
Upgrading to the latest NetworkManager version might also improve things
a lot.
