Subject: [ 107/171] USB: hub: handle claim of enabled remote wakeup after reset

3.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Oliver Neukum <oliver@...kum.org>

commit 07e72b95f5038cc82304b9a4a2eb7f9fc391ea68 upstream.

Some touchscreens have buggy firmware which claims
remote wakeup to be enabled after a reset. They nevertheless
crash if the feature is cleared by the host.
Add a check for reset resume before checking for
an enabled remote wakeup feature. On compliant
devices the feature must be cleared after a reset anyway.
