USB: don't ignore suspend errors for root hubs
This patch (as1532) fixes a mistake in the USB suspend code. When the system is going to sleep, we should ignore errors in powering down USB devices, because they don't really matter. The devices will go to low power anyway when the entire USB bus gets suspended (except for SuperSpeed devices; maybe they will need special treatment later). However we should not ignore errors in suspending root hubs, especially if the error indicates that the suspend raced with a wakeup request. Doing so might leave the bus powered on while the system was supposed to be asleep, or it might cause the suspend of the root hub's parent controller device to fail, or it might cause a wakeup request to be ignored. The patch fixes the problem by ignoring errors only when the device in question is not a root hub.
