Really, this is an indication that the problem lies not in ehci-hcd but
rather in the platform glue code. The platform code allows itself to
be registered as the driver of the controller device but does not
initialize the ehci-hcd parts.

Neither ehci_suspend nor ehci_resume is called directly by the driver
core; the calls all have to pass through the glue code. So maybe the
glue layer needs to be careful about invoking these routines in
ehci-hcd before ehci-hcd has been initialized.
