There are a few things I don't like about it:

In usb_hcd_pci_suspend, the failure path for
pci_set_power_state doesn't undo all the changes
that have already been made. In fact, the easiest
way to do the rest of the recovery probably is to
call usb_hcd_pci_resume directly.

In the !has_pci_pm path we don't call pci_set_power_state.
This means controllers with legacy power management won't
get suspended. Maybe pci_set_power_state should be
called always, and has_pci_pm be used only for
interpreting the return code and printing debug messages.

In usb_hcd_pci_resume, the pci_wake_from_d3 call
should be moved up right next to the pci_enable_wake
call. It makes no sense for them to be separated by
pci_enable_device and pci_set_master. After all,
even if you can't re-enable the device you probably
don't want it to continue being a wakeup source.

It's a little annoying that several debug messages
in usb_hcd_pci_resume have been removed. Can't we
display the power state upon entry, before trying to
change it?

It stands out that the resume method contains no call
to match pci_set_power_state() in the suspend method.
There should at least be a comment about it.

Some of these problems predate Rafael's patch. Given that it has
already helped a number of people, we might want to merge the patch
and then make additional changes to address these issues.
