ISTR trying this originally and watching it break things in some
of the test scenarios I tried. Quite a surprise actually. And as
I recall, it interacted with the issue in your patch #7/11 ...
What was your test matrix?
- USB_SUSPEND on and off?
- All host controller drivers?
- Devices with remote wakeup enabled? HCDs? Both, using it?
- ...
I remember identifying at least half a dozen factors that needed
testing to make sure all code paths got hit ... some worked this
way, some didn't. My test matrix covered each factor on/off, and
various populat combinations. Retesting after each bugfix was a
PITA ... 20 minutes per test, if they succeeded; sigh.
I think that USB_SUSPEND was the key factor I saw, or remote wakeup.
