AMD RV platforms with SNPS 3.1 USB controller stop responding (S3 issue)

[Alberto Milone]

SRU Request:

[Impact]
AMD RV platforms with SNPS 3.1 USB controllers will stop responding because of an RTL bug.

This workaround fixes S3 on RV platform with a USB keyboard

[Test Case]
1) Install the new kernel

2) Run pm-suspend

3) Press any key to wake up the system

[Regression Potential]
Low, the patch is very small, and it is already available upstream.

[Ubuntu Kernel Bot (ubuntu-kernel-bot)]

This bug is missing log files that will aid in diagnosing the problem. While running an Ubuntu kernel (not a mainline or third-party kernel) please enter the following command in a terminal window:

apport-collect 1711098

and then change the status of the bug to 'Confirmed'.

If, due to the nature of the issue you have encountered, you are unable to run this command, please add a comment stating that fact and change the bug status to 'Confirmed'.

This change has been made by an automated script, maintained by the Ubuntu Kernel Team.

[Kleber Sacilotto de Souza (kleber-souza)]

This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-zesty' to 'verification-done-zesty'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-zesty' to 'verification-failed-zesty'.

If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!

Alvin confirmed to me (in an email) that the fix in -proposed solves the problem.
