That is limited only to certain controllers right? RHEL6 doesn't support runtime suspend, so we don't hear to many complaints. Most of our server customers don't have much plugged into USB, so I don't expect much problems there. Our laptop customers prefer the power savings, but I don't know how many of them have chipsets with XHCI_RESET_ON_RESUME. > > Julius is proposing to limit the scope of the patch a bit, but the > impact will still be that TI hosts will be active more often than not. Hmm, for some reason I don't see TI having the XHCI_RESET_ON_RESUME quirk set, just VIA and ETRON. Neither of which seem to be normally shipped with servers.
