Rather, the hardware does it, but the driver is at least partially involved (ie.
unloading ehci-hcd before a suspend to RAM makes the box behave as expected,
which is to stay suspended).

Yes.

I bet on the lack of hardware workaround in there.

Also, the problem seems to be related to the sharing of resources between EHCI
and some devices (sharing interrupts, wakeup sources).

No it doesn't, AFAICS.

I tested this patch on the affected system before posting it.
