Could we also check a parent-only resume with no USB wake event? For
example, reading the DWC3 debugfs lsp_dump file calls
pm_runtime_resume_and_get(dwc->dev). With both devices suspended, this
change would wake xHCI too.

Would both devices return to autosuspend after the read and still
detect a subsequent plug-in? This would help cover the non-wakeup
case.
