If the reason for this patch is as mentioned in the commit message, then
I don't think this is a fix patch that needs to be backported to stable.
The reason why we needed to check both dwc->gadget_driver and
dwc->softconnect is because of a potential race between resume and
unbind. Would there be a similar case in dwc_gadget_suspend where a
potential race may occur? If not, I don't think we need this patch.

Thanks,
