I am using Lenovo Thinkpad E450 with Ubuntu 18.04.2 and kernel version
is Linux 4.14.105-0414105-generic.

I am currently not able to suspend my laptop properly.
I first experienced this when I was using the kernel 4.15.46.

Expected behavior when commanded to suspend:
Display goes black, the CPU fan is switched off, the power LED pulsates showing 
that the computer is in suspend mode. This should happen whenever the PC is 
suspended using the command 'sudo systemctl suspend' or closing the lid or 
choosing suspend in the menu options by long-pressing the power button.

What actually happens:
If any of the above methods is used to suspend the PC, the display goes black, 
the PC goes to suspend state after a few seconds, but remains in suspend only 
for a maximum of 7-10 seconds. After that it automatically resumes, with the 
display trying to show the lockscreen if lid is not closed. If lid is closed, 
then I know it has resumed as the power LED stays on and the fan runs. As time 
goes, it intermittently goes to suspend for a few seconds and resumes back. 
There is no unnatural behavior according to 'journalctl' or 'dmesg'. The system 
supposedly goes to suspend "only for a few seconds" and resumes back.

To resolve this issue I tried using 4.18 kernel and still the issue 
persisted.(Original kernel version was 4.15)
In another forum, I was suggested to use 4.14 kernel and even now the issue 
persists.

I don't know if this information would be helpful but during boot, I got these 
errors:
ACPI Error: Needed type [Reference], found [Integer] (____ptrval____) 
(20180531/exresop-69)
ACPI Error: AE_AML_OPERAND_TYPE, While resolving operands for [Store] 
(20180531/dswexec-427)
ACPI Error: Method parse/execution failed \_PR.CPU0._PDC, AE_AML_OPERAND_TYPE 
(20180531/psparse-516)

I also did a 'cat /sys/kernel/debug/suspend_stats' which returned 5
successes and 0 failures of any type.

PS: I don't think this is a bug based on a particular application/package, so I 
didn't include any.
Thanks in advance
