What happens after the notification event is generated? That is, what functions get called? I'm not at all familiar with this part of the kernel. If the wakeup signal isn't squelched at the source, as part of the event handling, will we get an interrupt storm? Will the uhci-hcd resume routine be able to handle this or does it need to be done earlier? In other words, do we need special-purpose code in the PCI layer to handler it?
