Would you be able to help me understand exactly what it means for the USB bus to go to suspend? Is this something that the host initiates or something that the gadget initiates? How does this relate to a simple charger? It that considered to have a non-suspended bus, or is it considered as a separate case? Maybe we need to not suspend the USB OTG interface when the device as a whole enters suspend-to-RAM. Maybe we need to register a dummy gadget to the bus active while in suspend? Does the gadget have to be responsive while-ever the bus is not suspended? Maybe we can arrange for any USB activity to trigger a resume? Entering suspend while still charging really should be possible - at least with a dump charger and hopefully from a host port as well. I'll like to find the best way to achieve that, and any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
