Subjectregression in 2.6.27.45 with usb and suspend-to-disk
2.6.27.45 will only suspend-to-disk once without rebooting.  every attempt
to suspend-to-disk after the first attempt results in "pm_op():
usb_dev_freeze +0x0/0xa returns -16" and "PM: Device usb1 failed to freeze:
error -16". reverting commit 4fbebe26d7a5eed6c1900bf2142b68af7df38462
(http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.27.y.git;a=commit;h=4fbebe26d7a5eed6c1900bf2142b68af7df38462)
fixes the problem.

this problem exhibits itself on both a x86-64 desktop and i386 netbook
(though the reverted commit was only tested on the x86-64 desktop). the
affected computers are different architectures, different distributions
(debian lenny vs ubuntu hardy), and different kernel configs (but unchanged
since 2.6.27.23), so i am fairly certain this is a regression in 2.6.27.45
and not the result of an environment change.

i normally use the pm-hibernate command to suspend to disk, but to isolate
the problem i used the kernel interfaces directly (as demonstrated in the
transcript below).

i can provide any other information necessary (eg .config, dmesg, lsusb)
and i am willing to test patches.

transcript of problem:

thanks for maintaining and contributing to the 2.6.27 stable kernel series!
