Yes it hits. The warning as well. How big of an issue is that?

My understanding is that this is the expected behavior with reset on
resume if we don't explicitely pass the flag XHCI_RESET_ON_RESUME. I
don't think we should be having the broken_suspend bit set as its
mentioning some specific quirk on AMD hardware.

Is the only expected difference inbetween having CDNS3_RESET_ON_RESUME &
not having it is resume time? For reference, the status read is 0x411
ie STS_HALT | STS_PCD | STS_SRE. xhc_state is zero.
