Ah, sorry.  I used a wrong tree to generate the patch.

Well, I think that when you're using the USB keyboard and the USB legacy
support, the i8042 driver thinks it has a keyboard to handle and tries to
handle it during the suspend, which fails.  I don't know why it fails during
the second suspend, though.

Dmitry, could you please have a look?

I think using the 'shutdown' mode of suspend would be better.  There's a little
point in using 'platform' on desktop systems anyway.

Frankly, I don't know what to do about it.  If we move platform_finish() after
device_resume(), some systems may be broken and I think there are more such
systems than there are systems that set USB legacy support in the BIOS and
have no PS/2 keyboards attached.  Pavel, what do you think?
