That's not a T2-specific issue.  It occurs on older Intel Macs as well.

Back in 2018, Chen Yu root-caused it to an invalid MTRR upon resume
from system sleep:

I've been using his patch for 8 years to reduce resume time on my
MacBookPro9,1.  Unfortunately it was never applied upstream for
reasons unknown.  It probably just slipped through the cracks.

You may want to test if his patch helps on T2 models as well.
I think it's a more generic solution to the problem than the one
you're proposing.

Thanks,

Lukas
