    USB: implement usb_enable_autosuspend · 088f7fec
    Alan Stern authored
    This patch (as1326) adds usb_enable_autosuspend() and
    usb_disable_autosuspend() routines for use by drivers.  If a driver
    knows that its device can handle suspends and resumes correctly, it
    can enable autosuspend all by itself.  This is equivalent to the user
    writing "auto" to the device's power/level attribute.
    
    The implementation differs slightly from what it used to be.  Now
    autosuspend is disabled simply by doing usb_autoresume_device() (to
    increment the usage counter) and enabled by doing
    usb_autosuspend_device() (to decrement the usage counter).
    
    The set_level() attribute method is updated to use the new routines,
    and the USB Power-Management documentation is updated.
    
    The patch adds a usb_enable_autosuspend() call to the hub driver's
    probe routine, allowing the special-case code for hubs in quirks.c to
    be removed.
