I don't like the second sentence very much. How about something like this instead: +If the device is disconnected or powered down while it is suspended, +the disconnect method will be called instead of the resume or +reset_resume method. This is also quite likely to happen when +waking up from hibernation, as many systems do not maintain suspend +current to the USB host controllers during hibernation. (It's +possible to work around the hibernation-forces-disconnect problem by +using the USB-Persist facility, described in +Documentation/usb/persist.txt.)
