I too was affected by this bug.  I run a fully updated 16.04
installation (currently 16.04.2) of Ubuntu.   I used nouveau.  When I
pressed the power button on my work desktop to wake it from suspend,
*sometimes* (here I differ from the original reporter) the login screen
would appear and freeze.  The system would not completely lock up.  I
could use ctrl + alt + f2 to switch to TTY2 and then restart the
computer, like the original reporter.

If I tried restarting lightdm via sudo service lightdm restart, the
computer would completely lock up and I had to perform a hard restart.

I successfully worked around the issue by installing the proprietary
nvidia driver (nvidia-340).
