USB/XHCI devices disconnecting in the kernel before the system goes to
suspend suggests it may be an intentional OS (via udev?) action.
Which distro are you using?

I think the panther mainboard has not been upstreamed yet so I assume
you are using a checkout from the chromium coreboot?  Or is this
pulling the chromium panther mainboard into the upstream coreboot?

Here are a few things to check:

- Is there an XHCI device visible (and set as enabled) in
/proc/acpi/wakeup output?

- When you go to suspend what does the kernel print about XHCI
controller itself?  (ignoring the devices for the moment)

I would expect to see lines like this before it actually goes to suspend:

xhci_hcd 0000:00:14.0: System wakeup enabled by ACPI
xhci_hcd 0000:00:14.0: power state changed by ACPI to D3cold

And then after resume:

xhci_hcd 0000:00:14.0: power state changed by ACPI to D0
xhci_hcd 0000:00:14.0: System wakeup disabled by ACPI

In an attempt to debug further it could help to send some additional output:

- dmesg after a suspend/resume cycle
- /sys/firmware/acpi/tables/DSDT (after run through iasl -d)  I don't
expect issues here if wake-on-lan is working, but worth a check.

Thanks,
