Yes - I checked and the particular patch that fixed suspend for me is also 
in 4.4.11.  I am now curious how many of the p-states improvements have 
been backported as well...

Camera also works, and enabling the TPM in TPM 1.2 mode does not interfere 
with suspend.  The system will not suspend/resume properly if the TPM is 
set to PTT mode (using my patched 4.5.5 kernel in Qubes 3.1 - I have not 
tried a 4.4.11 kernel).

I have not yet played with AEM.
