True, thanks for the explanation.
If there's a race between system resume and device-initiated resume, and port is resumed
in xhci_bus_resume() then yes I see how this could happen.

Maybe only call usb_hcd_end_port_resume() if xhci_irq() detected the device-initiated
resume. i.e. set a value to resume_done[portnum] and called usb_hcd_start_port_resume()
something like: 

@@ -1088,6 +1088,8 @@ static void xhci_get_usb2_port_status(struct xhci_port *port, u32 *status,
                if (link_state == XDEV_U2)
                        *status |= USB_PORT_STAT_L1;
                if (link_state == XDEV_U0) {
+                       if (bus_state->resume_done[portnum])
+                               usb_hcd_end_port_resume(&port->rhub->hcd->self, portnum);
                        bus_state->resume_done[portnum] = 0;
                        clear_bit(portnum, &bus_state->resuming_ports);

Also xhci_bus_resume() only resumes ports that were forcefully suspended to U3 in xhci_bus_suspend().
Could be worth checking why that device wasn't already in U3 when suspend reached xhci_bus_suspend().
