Subject: a new problem with the hso driver

Hi Greg/Andrew,
I've a minor problem.
If you put the hso driver into powersave mode
by going into /sysfs

cd /sys/
 find . -name idVendor | xargs -n 1 | grep -H af0
 cd ./devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.7/usb5/5-4/
 or wherever the idVendor is at.
 cd power/
echo auto > level

Then let the driver sleep for about 2 minutes.a

It can't be woken up, it appears that the 
usb layer is looking for a reset_resume
function to be implemented. 

We get the following messages from the kernel
[12518.790072] hso 2-2:1.0: no reset_resume for driver hso?
[12518.790081] hso 2-2:1.1: no reset_resume for driver hso?
[12518.790085] hso 2-2:1.2: no reset_resume for driver hso?

How do I implement a reset resume function?
could somebody tell me & put in a few comments in include/linux/usb.h
Our customer says the device has gone into an S3 sleep
whatever the difference between this & the reduced power mode
it goes into after 2 seconds when it calls hso_suspend I don't know.

On a slightly related issue
we get an error -22 ie -EINVAL from usb_submit_urb
this though I haven't investigated properly appears to happen when the device is suspended
but appears to have no adverse effect on the driver
it still seems to work, I haven't really investigated this, whats happening?
but would greatly appreciate being pointed in the right direction.
