Thanks for the clarification!

Good to know :)

The driver is dwc3-qcom, Peter pointed me to a patch he recently sent to add
the missing wakeup entry (https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11717835/). It
seems that should solve the problem, except for some confusion on my side
about the wakeup flag of the xHCI device vs. that of the platform device
(details in my reply to Peter).
