We may be talking about different things.  choose_wakeup() is called
for system suspend, whereas autosuspend_check() is called (obviously!)
for autosuspend.

Yes, choose_wakeup() uses device_may_wakeup().  But I was referring
only to autosuspend (as was Dmitry).  In autosuspend_check(),
do_remote_wakeup is set to w, which is the result of or'ing all the
intf->needs_remote_wakeup values.
