It's also possible that the AI finds instrumental utility in having humans around, and that reviving cryonics patients is cheaper than using their Von Newman factories.
I disagree. Humans almost certainly do not efficiently use free energy compared to the types of production units an ultra-AI could make.
How expensive is it to make a production unit with the versatility and efficiency of a human? How much of that energy would simply be wasted anyway? Likely, no, but possible.
Rolling all of that into 'cryonics fails' has little effect on the expected value in any case.
