I don't get it. Why would a device enter a state after resume, that it was not
in at _any_ time before the machine was suspended?
These change-id-on-bootstrap devices usually work like this,
as far as I know:
probe bootstrap device (switches hw to real device)
probe real device (firmware is loaded)
Suspend machine
Resume machine
usb detects that the device is "gone"
probe/resume bootstrap device (switches hw to real device)
probe/resume real device (No need to fetch fw from userspace. It's already cached)
What did I get wrong?
