SubjectRe: [PATCH] usb: host: ehci: workaround PME bug on AMD EHCI controller
Let's get some help from people who understand PCI well.

Here's the general problem: Kai-Heng has a PCI-based USB host
controller that advertises wakeup capability from D3, but it doesn't
assert PME# from D3 when it should. For "lspci -vv" output, see

This may indicate a bug in either the PCI or USB stacks (or both!). If
a driver requires wakeup capability from runtime suspend but the device
does not provide it, the PCI core should not allow the device to go
into runtime suspend. Or is that the driver's responsibility?

Yes, it is. The difficulty is that I don't know how to tell the PCI
core that the device should go in D2 during runtime suspend instead of
D3. Some sort of quirk may be needed -- perhaps Bjorn can help.
