USB: hub: Fix handling of connect changes during sleep
BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1878098 commit 9f952e26 upstream. Commit 8099f58f ("USB: hub: Don't record a connect-change event during reset-resume") wasn't very well conceived. The problem it tried to fix was that if a connect-change event occurred while the system was asleep (such as a device disconnecting itself from the bus when it is suspended and then reconnecting when it resumes) requiring a reset-resume during the system wakeup transition, the hub port's change_bit entry would remain set afterward. This would cause the hub driver to believe another connect-change event had occurred after the reset-resume, which was wrong and would lead the driver to send unnecessary requests to the device (which could interfere with a firmware update). The commit tried to fix this by not setting the change_bit during the wakeup. But this was the wrong thing to do; it means that when a device is unplugged while the system is asleep, the hub driver doesn't realize anything has happened: The change_bit flag which would tell it to handle the disconnect event is clear. The commit needs to be reverted and the problem fixed in a different way. Fortunately an alternative solution was noted in the commit's Changelog: We can continue to set the change_bit entry in hub_activate() but then clear it when a reset-resume occurs. That way the the hub driver will see the change_bit when a device is disconnected but won't see it when the device is still present. That's what this patch does.
