Hi Alan
  I'm thrilled to receive your reply. Thank you very much.
Sorry for the late response due to the holiday.

1. Although during the S4 quiesce phase, the do_remote_wakeup flag is set
to 0 within the usb_suspend->choose_wakeup function, the subsequent sequence
of usb_suspend->usb_suspend_both->usb_suspend_device->hcd_bus_suspend->
xhci_bus_suspend will disable remote wakeup for the RootHub port.
2. However, during the loading image phase prior to the S4 quiesce phase,
the USB device may have generated an interrupt, setting the WAKEUP_PENDING flag.
Additionally, due to the execution of freeze_kernel_threads before the loading
image phase, the USB interrupt generated during the loading image phase is
unable to execute its interrupt handler's bottom half, resulting in the
WAKEUP_PENDING flag remaining uncleared.
3. Therefore, even though the remote wakeup for the RootHub is disabled in
usb_suspend_both() during the quiesce phase, due to the WAKEUP_PENDING flag not
being cleared, the xhci still believes that the RootHub has generated a wakeup
event when it attempts to suspend. Consequently, the xhci suspend function
returns an -EBUSY error and does not proceed with the suspend operation.

After configuring CONFIG_PM_SLEEP, the return value of device_may_wakeup
should be equal to dev->power.can_wakeup && !!dev->power.wakeup.
