This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled usb: core: notify disconnection when core detects disconnect to my usb git tree which can be found at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/usb.git in the usb-linus branch. The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree (usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.) The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the next -rc kernel release. If you have any questions about this process, please let me know. >From b2108f1e519e983e5dd5712b3a44f7366ab509e4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Chen <peter.chen@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 4 Nov 2014 11:14:31 +0800 Subject: usb: core: notify disconnection when core detects disconnect It is safe to call notify disconnect when the usb core thinks the device is disconnected. This commit also fixes one bug found at below situation: we have not enabled usb wakeup, we do system suspend when there is an usb device at the port, after suspend, we plug out the usb device, then plug in device again. At that time, the nofity disconnect was not called at current code, as the controller doesn't know the usb device was disconnected during the suspend, but USB core knows the port has changed during that periods. So to fix this problem, and let the usb core call notify disconnect.
