So at what moment after a resume does a firmware that was in use with a device go away and what do we do about devices inserted while suspended ? Remembering that - there is no moment when USB says 'we have finished re-enumeration'. There is no point at which you can say 'we have finished re-enumeration, we are now starting on enumeration of new stuff'. New stuff wanting firmware will pop up on resume mixed in with old stuff. - we don't seem to have any device or bus infrastructure for doing a 'post resume' purge of such data if we could decide when that moment is ?
