It is usually put into USB suspend and the host preserves its state.
After resume, the usb storage driver, for example, will not register new
partitions but expect things to be as they were before. That is, your
previously mounted devices remain functional.

However, the enumeration process has to be done again, because when the
device looses power, it can't memorize its address.

That condition is detected and a full teardown of the connected drivers
is conducted. Try what happens on your notebook when you do that.
Embedded systems should behave just the same.
