You need to ensure that USBHOST/TLL context is saved as per the Save and
Restore sequence see section "USBHOST/USBTLL Save-and-Restore
Management" in the OMAP Technical Reference Manual.

The basic idea there is that software does the context saving into SAR
RAM before entering OFF mode and hardware automatically restores the
context after coming out of OFF mode.

But that alone is not enough for USB host to work. We need to make sure
we have covered all the erratas. There are a number of them which are
not covered yet in mainline.

USB remote wakeup is another challenge with OMAP USB host (while in OFF
mode). The usual workaround here is to use a GPIO as a wakeup line from
the modem.
