In this case there may be alternatives. For example, you could just
delay a few ms until the pending event has been handled. Or, if you
really just want to prevent runtime suspend, you should check to see if
this was a runtime suspend and not a system suspend. Or you could
prevent the bus from being runtime suspended in the first place by
doing a pm_runtime_get_sync().
I just want to prevent runtime suspend.
The pm_message_t msg is lost when hcd_bus_suspend() calls hcd->driver->bus_suspend(hcd).
Maybe it could be added?
It could. You'd just have to update all the existing callback routines
to accept the additional argument.
Or is there some other easy way to figure out if it is runtime suspend?
There isn't. But I still think you might be better off using the
existing runtime PM facilities to prevent runtime suspend at bad times
-- if possible.
The commit message said something about waiting for a newly discovered
hub to be probed. Can you go into more detail?
A USB3 device connected to a runtime suspended host woke up the host, polled the roothub,
found nothing and immediately tried to suspend again.

Feb 16 20:03:33 xhci_hcd 0000:0e:00.0: resume root hub
So what probably happened here was that connecting the usb device caused a
PCI PME# event to wake up the xhci PCI controller, calling
xhci_pci_resume(), calling
xhci_resume(), calling
usb_hcd_resume_root_hub(both usb2 and usb3 hcds) and
usb_hcd_poll_rh_status(both usb2 and usb3 hcd). polling rh status calls
hcd->driver->hub_status_data() -> xhci_hub_status_data()
xhci_hub_status_data() reads PORTSCs -> no change -> stop polling -> return 0
In core/hub.c hub_probe() autosuspend is set to 0 for roothubs with a long explanation why.
I assume that as xhci_hub_status_data clears the HCD_FLAG_POLL_RH flag and returns 0 (no changes)
we immediately runtime suspend the hub -> runtime suspend host.
