USB: use reset_resume when normal resume fails

Browse Source 
This patch (as1109b) makes USB-Persist more resilient to errors.  With
the current code, if a normal resume fails, it's an unrecoverable

enabled for USB-Persist) then a reset-resume is tried.

This fixes the problem reported in Bugzilla #10977.

The same thing happens if the host controller is in the expected state

If no device is now attached to the port, or if the descriptors are
different from what the kernel remembers, then the treatment is what
