This is very similar to what I've been observing for some time on one of my
test boxes wrt suspending to RAM and in that case the problem is also related
to EHCI (this is a pretty old Celeron-based box with an Intel chipset).

It looks like in some situations, on some platforms the EHCI controller
triggers a resume right after the suspend (or hibernation) if the driver's
.suspend() routine is executed before invoking the ACPI firmware to put the
system into the sleep state.

[The "ehci_hcd causes box to resume immediately after suspend to RAM" thread on
linux-pm was about this problem.]
