Note : been unable to reproduce this. Mae the laptop go for seveal hours into sleep / wake up cycles. Also let the laptop sleep a lot for 2 days before waking it up : that error is not coming back at all.

Maybe some cosmic ray perturbed the memory and provoked this issue :)

Unable to reproduce what I reported below.
