This doesn't look right at all.  What happens if ret is 0 but the
device isn't configured?  You'll set the usb3_lpm_u*_enabled flag even
though LPM isn't really enabled.

Don't you want to set these flags inside the
usb_set_device_initiated_lpm() function, where you know whether the
action succeeded?  And leave this routine unchanged?

And then this won't be necessary.
