This is not true as of today. A lot has changed since 2012 and most of the issues that Kevin
had pointed out then have been fixed. The only piece that is missing is allowing the system
to hit lower power states (e.g. RETention) when USB host is suspended. This feature
will eventually be supported when we have IO daisy chaining working with device tree.

Yes please. Thanks :). I'm working on the approach Arnd suggested as well.
