From: Mario Limonciello <mario.limonciello@amd.com> Sending an input event to wake a system does wake it, but userspace picks up the keypress and processes it. This isn't the intended behavior as it causes a suspended system to wake up and then potentially turn off if userspace is configured to turn off on power button presses. Instead send a PM wakeup event for the PM core to handle waking the system.

At least for GNOME this has been fixed in userspace by ignoring power-button events the first few seconds after a resume from suspend.
The default behavior for logind is: HandlePowerKey=poweroff Can you share more about what version of GNOME has a workaround? This was actually GNOME (on Ubuntu 24.04) that I found this issue. Nonetheless if this is dependent on an Android userspace problem could we perhaps conditionalize it on CONFIG_ANDROID_BINDER_DEVICES? Most people not using Android would be compiling with that enabled in their kernel I'd expect.
