Sorry. My description about the issue is incorrect. If using the save/restore
state function, after resume, the superspeed devices work fine but the usb
2.0 devices will be disconnected. It seems like the embedded 2.0 hub in
VIA host controller can't be re-enumerated, so the 2.0 devices will be
disconnected. I don't know why.

Well. Saving the DCBAA, Context and other data structures maybe fix this
kind of issue.

I don't know. As far as I know, after reset the VIA host,  the host
will fetch the
value of event ring register as long as the driver write those registers. Then
after driver write 0 to those registers the host thinks the value is
valid, maybe
do something to event ring after fetching the value. I don't know the more
details about it.

Hmm, I see. I think after the xhci-hcd driver is insmoded again, driver
will reset the host again in host initialization. It can recover the host.
