There were quite a few code movements around this:

	e67ebf1b3815 ("xhci: move usb2 get port status link resume handling to its own function")
	5f78a54f8d31 ("xhci: move usb3 speficic bits to own function in get_port_status call")
	70e9b53dfedc ("xhci: move usb2 speficic bits to own function in get_port_status call")

I've fixed up the original patch to work around that and queued for 4.19
- 4.4.
