Just retried with Fedora-Workstation-Live-x86_64-Rawhide-20180220.n.0.iso on a Surface Book with updated UEFI (microcode now 0xc2):

Connected successfully to WPA2 wifi.

Suspended successfully via "systemctl suspend" a few times (so Suspend now works) but still after few suspends wifi went crazy (see attached dmesg output). No way to reconnect to wifi - can't see networks anymore.
