So what you are saying is that currently, the various gadgets aren't
calling usb_gadget_wakeup() ?

Ie. it should be a gadget policy to decide when to wake-up I suppose,
but it's true that nothing in the core nor the existing gadgets seem to
handle that.

I think what you propose is a band-aid. The real problem is that the
gadget drivers should trigger wakeups (or the core should do so on
activity).

That said, for now, I don't object to adding that "auto" bit, but I
would prefer if that behaviour was use configurable.

Cheers,
Ben.
