That's strange, because ehci_suspend() sets the intr_enable register to
0. So how do you ever get any wakeup interrupts at all?

We don't need an interrupt. The driver is supposed to detect the
remote wakeup sent by the external hub all by itself.

Here's where we should detect it. Look at the GetPortStatus case in
ehci_hub_control(); the PORT_RESUME bit (0x0040) is set in temp, so the
"Remote Wakeup received?" code should run. In particular, these lines
should run:

/* resume signaling for 20 msec */
ehci->reset_done[wIndex] = jiffies
+ msecs_to_jiffies(20);
usb_hcd_start_port_resume(&hcd->self, wIndex);
/* check the port again */
mod_timer(&ehci_to_hcd(ehci)->rh_timer,
ehci->reset_done[wIndex]);

Therefore 20 ms later, around timestamp 16.128459,
ehci_hub_status_data() should have been called. At that time, the
root-hub port should have been fully resumed.

But apparently nothing happened. Why not? Did the rh_timer get reset?
Maybe you can find out what went wrong.

(Hmmm, we seem to be missing a

set_bit(wIndex, &ehci->resuming_ports);

line in there...)

Ah, yes. Other subsystems, such as PCI, face exactly the same problem.

You probably shouldn't call it "initialized", though, because the same
issue arises in ehci_hcd_omap_remove() -- the pm_runtime_put_sync()
there would end up calling ehci_suspend() after usb_remove_hcd().
"bound" or "started" would be better names.
