the global pm_mutex that this refers to is used in generic PM code, not USB code.

enter_state() grabs it at the beginning of the suspend, and releases it when
resume is completed.

The mystery is why echo is exiting before enter_state() completes.

Same if you don't put the echo in the background here?

hard to say if the failure is related to ACPI or not at this point --
though it is not unusual for people to assume that STR and ACPI
are synonyms, so that if STR doesn't work it must be due to ACPI
rather than generic PM code or drivers.
