I'm not talking about Linux suspend to disk; I'm talking about Synopsys'
Hibernation feature (open up your databook and have a read ;-)

We don't do anything when dwc3 is working as a host, we simply assume if
we reach dwc3.ko, xhci has done its part. Here's what our
suspend_common looks like:

static int dwc3_suspend_common(struct dwc3 *dwc)
{
	unsigned long	flags;

	switch (dwc->current_dr_role) {
	case DWC3_GCTL_PRTCAP_DEVICE:
		spin_lock_irqsave(&dwc->lock, flags);
		dwc3_gadget_suspend(dwc);
		spin_unlock_irqrestore(&dwc->lock, flags);
		dwc3_core_exit(dwc);
		break;
	case DWC3_GCTL_PRTCAP_HOST:
	default:
		/* do nothing */
		break;
	}

	return 0;
}

We're not resetting anything, not tearing down anything. No idea why
you're saying that in host mode we're breaking things apart. If you have
out-of-tree patches on top of v4.15-rc7, fix them instead of claiming
mainline is at fault.
