Unfortunately it does not, and fails the same way. On the other hand,
I do not see the issue when doing the following:

After doing this I don't see this issue anymore. It looks wrong
though. But it seems to work despite the obvious unbalance in autopm
calls that results.

If I understand you correctly, usb_wwan_write() failing here is not a
problem in itself, and the ack should just be sent again later?

That was what I thought looking (obviously too) briefly through this.

Most errors from usb_autopm_get_interface_async will be translated to
EIO before being returned by serial_write.  I believe the userspace
application should deal with that.  But maybe it just gives up?  Should
we return EAGAIN or something instead?

I don't know.  I am pretty clueless about these things...

Obviously not as much as I am. :) Checking what userspace is doing could indeed be another trail.

But looking again, trying to guess why it works fine if you just ignore
the error. I believe that is because you then end up hitting this until
the interface is fully resumed:

		if (intfdata->suspended) {
			usb_anchor_urb(this_urb, &portdata->delayed);
			spin_unlock_irqrestore(&intfdata->susp_lock, flags);
                 }

Yes, this seems to be exactly what is happening.

I am way out of my league here, but I wonder if pm_runtime_get()
shouldn't return -EINPROGRESS instead if there is a queued resume
request or an ongoing resume, regardless of disable_depth?

Maybe something like the completely untested:

usb_autopm_get_interface_async() will interprete EINPROGRESS as success,
so that would prevent this problem.

That sounds sensefull indeed. If the interface is soon to be resumed, there should be no reason for usb_autopm_get_interface_async() to fail. Let's give this a try and bring the idea to the PM people if it works.

In any case thanks a lot for the help, it is extremely useful.
Alex.
