Hi,

I don't think I understand your description clearly. My idea is that if the
device doesn't support wakeup, we don't need set " needs_remote_wakeup".
We allow the device could be suspended and couldn't be waked up by
incoming packet. The system could be waked up by other methods except
by the device.

I don't understand why I have to set it at open() and reset it at close(). And
why must the device only be suspended when it is down?

Best Regards,
Hayes
