Yes. This is a side effect of this patch. The unsol event is delayed until the user operation triggers the delayed resume.
Then intel_haswell_wait_ready_to_resume() will enable unsol events.

I think there is no race for Haswell. In my test I observed that the unsol evnet will not be received
until intel_haswell_wait_ready_to_resume() enables the unsol event on the pins.
So I put "spec->ready_to_resume = 0" before enabling the unsol event.
