In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: xhci-plat: fix crash when suspend if remote wake enable
Crashed at i.mx8qm platform when suspend if enable remote wakeup

The basic flow: 1. run time suspend call xhcisuspend, xhci parent devices gate the clock. 2. echo mem >/sys/power/state, system _devicesuspend call xhcisuspend 3. xhcisuspend call xhcidisablehubportwake, which access register, but clock already gated by run time suspend.
This problem was hidden by power domain driver, which call run time resume before it.
But the below commit remove it and make this issue happen. commit c1df456d0f06e ("PM: domains: Don't runtime resume devices at genpd_prepare()")
This patch call run time resume before suspend to make sure clock is on before access register.
