You say the patch only affects root hub devices, but this doesn't appear 
to be true.

I don't see anything in there which treats root hubs differently from 
other devices.

Besides, enabling wakeup for root hubs is generally a bad idea.  Suppose 
you closed a laptop's lid and then unplugged a USB device -- with wakeup 
enabled, the unplug would cause the laptop to wake up again without your 
knowledge.
