Yes, sure. Drivers wanting to do this, anticipating typical errors, can
still return 0 from suspend and do whatever they want in resume.
My proposal is to make the USB core properly deal with drivers returning
an error from suspend, and also document the fact that a driver should
always return 0 on system suspend unless it really want forced unbinding
on suspend errors.

Yes, that is probably relevant. I'll look it up. Thanks for the
pointer.
