HI Alan:
		I just find Rafael's patch has resolved this issue. In this patch, enable runtime PM
right after executing subsystem/driver .resume_early() callbacks. When do resume(),
the device's runtime pm has been enabled. This patch now is already in the v3.8-rc4.
So this patchset will not cause problem with Rafael patch and I have tested. About the
port system suspend/resume() callback, Could I do this in the next step?

    PM: Move disabling/enabling runtime PM to late suspend/early resume

    Currently, the PM core disables runtime PM for all devices right
    after executing subsystem/driver .suspend() callbacks for them
    and re-enables it right before executing subsystem/driver .resume()
    callbacks for them.  This may lead to problems when there are
    two devices such that the .suspend() callback executed for one of
    them depends on runtime PM working for the other.  In that case,
    if runtime PM has already been disabled for the second device,
    the first one's .suspend() won't work correctly (and analogously
    for resume).

    To make those issues go away, make the PM core disable runtime PM
    for devices right before executing subsystem/driver .suspend_late()
    callbacks for them and enable runtime PM for them right after
    executing subsystem/driver .resume_early() callbacks for them.  This
    way the potential conflitcs between .suspend_late()/.resume_early()
    and their runtime PM counterparts are still prevented from happening,
    but the subtle ordering issues related to disabling/enabling runtime
    PM for devices during system suspend/resume are much easier to avoid.

Actually it's worse than that.  The PM layer assumes that devices are brought back to full power during system resume.  But that's not true for your usb_port devices, because they don't have a resume callback.

In addition, we need to enable async PM for the usb_ports, just like everything else in the USB stack.  This means you have to call device_enable_async_suspend before the port is registered.

When async is enabled, there won't be any defined ordering.  We will have to enforce the proper ordering by hand.  This means usb_resume_device will have to call device_pm_wait_for_dev for the port device (it already does this for the companion root hub).  In fact, the code to do this waiting probably should be moved to usb_resume, because it applies only to system resume, not to runtime resume.

No, neither of these.  The right approach is to define a new usb_port_system_resume routine.  It should call usb_port_runtime_resume directly and set the runtime PM status back to ACTIVE, similar to what
usb_resume() does.  In the dev_pm_ops structure, both the resume and the restore callbacks should point to this new routine.
