Doing just that would not allow to switch the hub off when wakeup enabled descendants are connected, which might be desirable in some configurations. > If you use dwc3, you need to enable xhci-plat.c's wakeup entry if your > system needs xHCI connect/disconnect wakeup event.

So it seems your patch should solve my problem (sharp timing!), however you mention specifically the 'xHCI connect/disconnect wakeup event', so I wonder if the xHCI wakeup flag isn't applicable to other wakeup events. I know the dwc3-qcom platform device has its own wakeup flag. The driver currently enables wakeup interrupts unconditionally, I sent a patch to change that (https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/1305894/), however I now wonder if it should evaluate the xHCI wakeup flag instead of its own. Thanks Matthias
