Sounds like it.

The OHCI controller settings look normal.  It doesn't appear to be 
sending a wakeup signal.

The EHCI controller settings, however, are strange.  The relevant part 
is the Power Management Status line near the end:

This means the controller is in the D0 state (as expected) and 
PME-Enable is currently turned off ("PME" stands for "Power Management 
Event").  But the PME+ at the end means that as soon as PME does get 
enabled -- like when the controller is suspended at the start of a 
system sleep -- it _will_ send a PME signal.

So for some reason your EHCI controller thinks a wakeup event is 
pending.  This means you should examine the contents of the "registers" 
file in the debugfs directory for the EHCI controller, not OHCI.
