[Troublshoot] Fan won't stop after hibernation [Solved - probably]

Hey,

hope you might be able to help me troubleshoot my fan problem.

Sometimes if I wake my laptop from hibernation/sleep the fan(s) are loud and spinning w/o end. The only solution would be send the laptop back to hibernation via closing the lid and waiting a few seconds or a shutdown.
Simply sending to hibernation does not do the trick all the time, so I have to shut it down completely.

Here I have screenshot from glances: https://imgur.com/a/VJ578Fz

I am not sure if this is enough info but I don't know how to troubleshoot this.

Current setup:
Thinkpad T470;
no swap Partition (or a swap file for that matter);
Using awesome wm
Anything else I could check or provide Info?

Thanks in advance

Edit:
Updating the BIOS seems to have resolved the issue. It's been a week now and the fans are working just fine now.

Try updating your system.  There was an issue with fans a little while back and a newer kernel seems to have solved it.  Maybe a newer kernel will solve your problem too.

Thank you. I apply updates regularly.  That seems not be my solution
