It's a little difficult to pin down the blame. In one form or another
this problem probably existed all along, although it may not have been
very obvious.
For those interested in the explanation:
The EHCI USB controller is represented in sysfs by two device structures.
The higher one represents the controller's PCI interface (let's call it
the "PCI-controller") and the lower one represents the USB interface
(let's call it the "root hub"). Inside the resume() routine for the
PCI-controller, if the driver finds that power was lost during the suspend
-- as it would be for suspend-to-disk -- the driver reinitializes the root
hub but without telling usbcore it has done so. If the root hub had
already been suspended at the time of the suspend-to-disk, then
resume-from-disk would skip calling its resume() method. So as far as
usbcore knows the root hub should still be suspended, but in fact it is
awake.
Consequently during the second suspend-to-disk, usbcore does not pass the
suspend() call on to the root hub's driver. Then the suspend() method for
the PCI-controller fails, because it sees that the child root hub is still
unsuspended.
I was just going to send in a patch to fix the problem. I haven't had
much of a chance to try it out yet. The patch is included below, so you
can test it right away and let me know if it works for you before I submit
it.
