It really depends on the system.

I recently got my hands on a Acer Aspire E-571 (Haswell i3-4030U) and suspend/resume in X with i915kms literally just worked installing FreeBSD 11.0-RC3 from installer and xorg/xdm/openbox from packages, no config file touched (apart from adjusting the keyboard layout and setting the lid_close_state sysctl to S3).

What does not work on it yet is the Elan trackpad, since it is the version that is connected via i2c.
