The code should work correctly no matter when the hardware enables 
wake-on-disconnect.

No.

I just tried the test again on a different computer.  This time I was 
running 3.13-rc8 (before was 3.12.something).  In both cases, the 
device does not support wakeup (it is a flash drive).

You mean _before_ ehci_bus_suspend has finished.

As far as I can see, it doesn't matter.  The important thing is whether
the bus enters full-speed idle before we enable wake-on-disconnect.

So ehci-hcd has to take care of it.
