You said earlier that the host controller was disabled for remote
wakeup ("/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.7/power/wakeup is disabled
by default").  So even though the root hub might issue a wakeup
request, the controller hardware should not forward that request to the
PCI bus and it should not cause the system to wake up.

Why _what_ is enabled?  Detection of disconnects?  Because otherwise 
your computer wouldn't realize anything had happened when a suspended 
USB device was unplugged from a suspended root hub.

Look again -- they all do.  (All the HCDs that support suspend/resume, 
anyway.)

No, for the reason I described above.  The controller is aware of the 
wakeup request but doesn't generate a PME# event.  Likewise for desktop 
systems.

Why would you want to change the jumper settings?  Host controllers are 
_supposed_ to supply 5V power during system suspend.
