Unloading the driver and killing the 'fwupd' daemon resulted that
device to go into runtime suspend. Here I noticed that both the
operations(i.e. rmmod btusb & kill -9 <pid of fwupd>) are mandatory to
device to go into runtime suspend. I'd like to understand how the
driver & daemon are preventing the device to go into suspend mode, can
you please explain me on this?
