2.6.24-rc2 STD with s2disk fails to activate suspended system afterloading

[Chris Friedhoff]

please cc me, I'm not not subscribed to LKML

Hello,

with kernel 2.6.24-rc2 STD with s2disk suspends the system to disk, but
when I start the system and the suspended systemimage is loaded, it
fails to "activate" this suspended systemimage and continues after some
time with following the normal boot sequence.

I can sucessfully STD the system with the following sequence
  echo platform > /sys/power/disk
  echo disk > /sys/power/state
and when I start the laptop the suspended system is sucessfully
restored.

Both behaviors are reliable reproducable.
