You can only swapon(2) swap partitions. Run
$ sudo mkswap /dev/nvme0n1p4
and reboot, and it should work just fine.
swapon(8) does a lot more than merely call swapon(2), including
overwriting any SWSUSPEND signature[0].
Guix does not do this.
It could, either at the expense of code manually kept in sync with
util-linux, or by embedding a copy swapon(8) in the initrd, enlarging
it.
Kind regards,
