ACPI: Waking up from system sleep state S4
PM: Device PNP0C0D:00 failed to thaw: error 1

The device appears to be the acpi lid "button".  The error comes from
calling acpi_lid_send_state():

    @@ -242,7 +272,12 @@ static int acpi_lid_send_state(struct
    acpi_device *device)
         /* input layer checks if event is redundant */
         input_report_switch(button->input, SW_LID, !state);
         input_sync(button->input);

    +    ret = blocking_notifier_call_chain(&acpi_lid_notifier, state,
    device);
    +    if (ret == NOTIFY_DONE)
    +        ret = blocking_notifier_call_chain(&acpi_lid_notifier, state,
    +                           device);
    +    return ret;
     }


The "error 1" is actually NOTIFY_OK.

    @include/linux/notify.h:
    #define NOTIFY_DONE        0x0000        /* Don't care */
    #define NOTIFY_OK        0x0001        /* Suits me */
    #define NOTIFY_STOP_MASK    0x8000        /* Don't call further */
    #define NOTIFY_BAD        (NOTIFY_STOP_MASK|0x0002)
                            /* Bad/Veto action */
    /*
     * Clean way to return from the notifier and stop further calls.
     */
    #define NOTIFY_STOP        (NOTIFY_OK|NOTIFY_STOP_MASK)


Clearly acpi_lid_send_state() should return 0 for NOTIFY_OK.  I guess
NOTIFY_STOP can be ignored until someone says they need it.

But I don't understand the NOTIFY_DONE case, so I'm not sure.  I can't
find any users to reverse engineer it.  IMO it either needs to be
removed or commented.

Can you please sort this out, so we don't see this error message on a
completely successful resume?

Thanks!
Alan
