This patch (as1363) changes the way USB remote wakeup is handled
during system sleeps. It won't be enabled unless an interface driver
specifically needs it. Also, it won't be enabled during the FREEZE or
QUIESCE phases of hibernation, when the system doesn't respond to
wakeup events anyway. Finally, if the device is already
runtime-suspended with remote wakeup enabled, but wakeup is supposed
to be disabled for the system sleep, the device gets woken up so that
it can be suspended again with the proper wakeup setting.
This will fix problems people have reported with certain USB webcams
that generate wakeup requests when they shouldn't, and as a result
cause system suspends to fail. See
