What do you mean by "fully-suspended"? What if the parent has several children? Maybe some of them have implementations of the suspend callback and the others don't. Will your patch do the right thing then? > Without this change, USB interface devices will always prevent the > proper USB device to stay in runtime suspension when the system > suspends.

If your goal is to prevent USB devices from being resumed when the system wakes up, then the correct approach is to make usb_dev_prepare() return 1 rather than 0 under the appropriate conditions, and to add a dev_pm_ops to the usb_if_device_type structure with a prepare callback that returns 1.
