We force a disconnect during suspend which is actually triggered by user
Only. So do we need to consider this scenario?
Like Ajay says, the kernel would need to take a call either way:
- Disallowing a system wide suspend, just because a USB cable is connected
- Allow a system-wide suspend, but disconnect the gadget device.
I would vote to allow a system-wide suspend. A user that tries to put
a phone to standby in the middle of a data transfer shouldn't be too
surprised that the data transfer was aborted.
yes, but the problem would be the data corrupted. I'm pretty sure user
will be a bit surprised that he now can't use his 27GB and lost all
contacts, movies, smses, etc.
