Commit 25cd2882e2 ("usb/xhci: Change how we indicate a host supports
Link PM.") removed the code to set lpm_capable for USB 3.0 super-speed
root hub. The intention of that change was to avoid touching usb core
internal field, a.k.a. lpm_capable, and let usb core to set it by
checking U1 and U2 exit latency values in the descriptor.
Usb core checks and sets lpm_capable in hub_port_init(). Unfortunately,
root hub is a special usb device as it has no parent. Hub_port_init()
will never be called for a root hub device. That means lpm_capable will
by no means be set for the root hub. As the result, lpm isn't functional
at all in Linux kernel.
This patch add the code to check and set lpm_capable when registering a
root hub device. It could be back-ported to kernels as old as v3.15,
that contains the Commit 25cd2882e2 ("usb/xhci: Change how we indicate
a host supports Link PM.").
