I believe you should be using pm_wakeup_event() in all cases so that
pressing power would interrupt suspend even if resume() handler has not
been run yet. Also I do not think suppressing KEY_POWER is needed.
Userspace should be smart and decide whether to shutdown the system or
not when receiving KEY_POWER depending on the overall system state.

	int error;

Since you are doing this to seed initial switch/button state I would do
this before registering input device (this is safe to do so).

Thanks.
