4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Frieder Schrempf <frieder.schrempf@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 7b900ead6cc66b2ee873cb042dfba169aa68b56c ] We need to make sure, that the carrier check polling is disabled while suspending. Otherwise we can end up with usbnet_read_cmd() being issued when only usbnet_read_cmd_nopm() is allowed. If this happens, read operations lock up.
