Every time I tried to upgrade my laptop from 3.10.x to 4.x I faced an issue by which the fan would run at full speed upon resume. Bisecting it showed me the issue was introduced in 3.17 by commit 821d6f0359b0 (ACPI / sleep: Do not save NVS for new machines to accelerate S3). This code only affects machines built starting as of 2012, but this Asus 1025C laptop was made in 2012 and apparently needs the NVS data to be saved, otherwise the CPU's thermal state is not properly reported on resume and the fan runs at full speed upon resume.

Here's a very simple way to check if such a machine is affected :

# cat /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone0/temp 55000

( now suspend, wait one second and resume )

# cat /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone0/temp 0

(and after ~15 seconds the fan starts to spin)

Let's apply the same quirk as commit cbc00c13 (ACPI: save NVS memory for Lenovo G50-45) and reuse the function it provides. Note that this commit was already backported to 4.9.x but not 4.4.x.
