I don't know what you mean by "fails". The system goes to sleep and
then later on wakes up, doesn't it?

Do you mean that the Jetflash device gets disconnected when the system
wakes up? That's _supposed_ to happen under those circumstances.
When hub_activate() sees HUB_RESET_RESUME, all child devices get
disconnected except those where udev->persist_enabled is set.

You lost me there. Why does usb_port_resume call
hub_port_logical_disconnect? Does this happen because
check_port_resume_type returns an error code? What are the values of
the portchange and portstatus arguments to check_port_resume_type?

That's exactly right.

No, it succeeds in behaving the way it is intended to behave.

I can't tell at this point. It depends on the reason why
hub_port_logical_disconnect got called.
