This problem sounds like a wake GPE is enabled for the lid switch and 
that it has a _PRW that indicates it can wake the system from S5.  If 
this is the case, just disabled the GPE.

This is likely a similar GPE problem.  The GPE for the EC fires even in 
S5.  I think the EC GPE should be disabled in the suspend method.
