Strange... without the usb cable plugged in, runtime PM should kick in
and suspend the device long before system suspend happens so that there
shouldn't be anything for the MUSB driver to do during system suspend.

The reason I implemented it that way was because I understood that with
a cable plugged in, you cant reliabaly suspend (or resume) MUSB due to
HW bugs/limitations.

Hopefully Felipe can chime in here to clarify.

I think your patch is probably useful also, but would like to see the
MUSB driver issues better clarified and fixed as well.
