I dont think its a bug in xhci. In case of xhci-pci driver it actually 
does an
hcd->driver->pci_suspend (xhci_suspend) followed by synchronize_irq()
and the does a pci_disable_device().  In resume path it calls 
pci_enable_device()
followed by hcd->driver->pci_resume(xhci_resume).

In case of dwc3-omap we do have a wrapper register which can still 
disable the XHCI IRQs
even though the xhci driver enables the interrupts internally.

Now dwc3-omap wrapper driver should not actually fiddle with the core 
Interrupt
enable/disable except in probe/remove.

Probably the patch should have been to still keep the complete/prepare 
in place
but not disable the core interrupts, rather enable/disable only the 
wrapper interrupt.
