Below is a slightly improved version of the patch.  It's what I intend 
to submit for 2.6.27.stable.  I'd appreciate your testing it to make 
sure that it behaves properly on both machines.

Be sure to set CONFIG_USB_DEBUG in the netbook's kernel too.  If the 
reason for its failure turns out to be different, we'll need the extra 
information.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

This patch fixes a bug caused by backporting commit
cec3a53c7fe794237b582e8e77fc0e48465e65ee (USB: EHCI & UHCI: fix race
between root-hub suspend and port resume) to 2.6.27.stable without
also backporting commit eafe5b99f2135488b21cf17a262c54997c44f784 (USB:
EHCI: fix remote-wakeup support for ARC/TDI core).  This extracts the
necessary changes from the earlier patch and backports them.

The symptom of the bug is that the system will fail to suspend more
than once.  The problem is caused by setting ehci->reset_done[i] but
never clearing it.  When ehci_bus_suspend() sees a nonzero value
there, it assumes this means the port is in the middle of resuming so
it aborts the bus suspend.
