But why doesn't it fail during normal operation?

I suspect that its firmware requires the altsetting

        /* should we change control altsetting on a NCM/MBIM function? */
        if (cdc_ncm_select_altsetting(intf) == CDC_NCM_COMM_ALTSETTING_MBIM) {
                data_altsetting = CDC_NCM_DATA_ALTSETTING_MBIM;
                ret = cdc_mbim_set_ctrlalt(dev, intf, 
CDC_NCM_COMM_ALTSETTING_MBIM);

to be set before it accepts a suspension.
