We need to do something about devices that don't want to be resumed.
There's code like this:


static int usb_resume(struct device *dev)
{
	struct usb_device	*udev;

	if (!is_usb_device(dev))	/* Ignore PM for interfaces */
		return 0;
	udev = to_usb_device(dev);

	/* If udev->skip_sys_resume is set then udev was already suspended
	 * when the system suspend started, so we don't want to resume
	 * udev during this system wakeup.  However a reset-resume counts
	 * as a wakeup event, so allow a reset-resume to occur if remote
	 * wakeup is enabled. */
	if (udev->skip_sys_resume) {
		if (!(udev->reset_resume && udev->do_remote_wakeup))
			return -EHOSTUNREACH;
	}
	return usb_external_resume_device(udev);
}

Do we want to keep this in the subsystems?

	Regards
