Ok, there is some heavy EBCAK involved. I just did an
echo rmmod
without a real rmmod. But the suspend thing is still valid.

Sorry for the confusion.

To avoid further confusion I have uploaded these two scripts
I have given to the kernel.
http://misc.andi.de1.cc/measure4.sh

output from that:
no modules: cur: 61047 delta: 61047
before: 423462
after: 421326
average 25632 uA over 300 seconds
 cur: 60333 delta: -714
+ehci-omap cur: 93712 delta: 33379
-ehci-omap cur: 60511 delta: -33201
before: 420792
after: 418656
average 25632 uA over 300 seconds


http://misc.andi.de1.cc/measure5.sh
output from that:

no modules: cur: 61225 delta: 61225
before: 427734
after: 425598
average 25717 uA over 299 seconds

+ehci-omap cur: 93712 delta: 33915

The 40mA is too high. We have had measurements below 30mA even with
modem enabled with some pre-dt setup (Kernel 3.7)
