Thanks, I found the bug. It was not suspend2 specific, any kmdl built
in the last 5 days had a provides missing :/

But it was introduced when trying to fix the kernel-suspend2 kmdl
dependencies, so it still is kernel-suspend2 related ;)

Rebuilding all these kmdls will take some time. Please check in
24h-48h again. Thanks for reporting this bug!
