Unfortunately, this usually happens while the first LED request is
actually still being processed.  Thus when the completion handler tries
to submit the second LED request it fails, since REPORTED_IDLE is
already set!  This REPORTED_IDLE check failure causes the completion
handler to complete, however without clearing the CTRL_RUNNING flag.
This, in turn, means that the suspend() handler's wait_io() condition
is never satisfied, and instead it times out after 10 seconds, aborting
the original system suspend.

This patch changes the behavior to the following:
  (1) allow completion handler to finish submitting all queued URBs, even if
      REPORTED_IDLE is set.  This guarantees that all URBs queued before the
      hid-core suspend() call will be submitted before the system is
      suspended.
Hi,

why is this desirable? You'd want to requests to be executed at resumption.
A system suspend will alter the LED state anyway.
This is how a system suspend 'alters' the LED state.  The input layer
sends those LED off commands down through HID as it is trying to
suspend.  We want to make sure the usbhid layer actually finishes
forwarding those requests on to the device before the system is
suspended.
