This patch (as1367) deprecates USB's power/level sysfs attribute in
favor of the power/control attribute provided by the runtime PM core.
The two attributes do the same thing.
It would be nice to replace power/level with a symlink to
power/control, but at the moment sysfs doesn't offer any way to do so.

Some devices which use mode switching revert to their
primary mode as they are reset. They must not be reset for
error handling. As user spaces makes the switch it also
has to tell the kernel that a device is quirky.

Accroding commit 0994375e, which is adding remove_id sysfs attr
for pci drivers, for management tools dynamically bind/unbind
a pci/usb devices to a specified drivers; with this patch,
the management tools can be simplied.
And the original code didn't handle the failure of
usb_create_newid_file, fixed in this patch.

Create a new sysfs file per interface named supports_autosuspend. This
file returns true if an interface driver's .supports_autosuspend flag is
set. It also returns true if the interface is unclaimed (since the USB
core will autosuspend a device if an interface is not claimed).
This new sysfs file will be useful for user space scripts to test whether
a USB device correctly auto-suspends.

This documents two newly created files:
/sys/bus/usb/device/.../power/connected_duration
/sys/bus/usb/device/.../power/active_duration
Documentation was placed in Documentation/ABI/testing, since that's where the
documentation is for the other USB sysfs power files.

This patch (as920) adds an extra level of protection to the
USB-Persist facility. Now it will apply by default only to hubs; for
all other devices the user must enable it explicitly by setting the
power/persist device attribute.
The disconnect_all_children() routine in hub.c has been removed and
its code placed inline. This is the way it was originally as part of
hub_pre_reset(); the revised usage in hub_reset_resume() is
sufficiently different that the code can no longer be shared.
Likewise, mark_children_for_reset() is now inline as part of
hub_reset_resume(). The end result looks much cleaner than before.
The sysfs interface is updated to add the new attribute file, and
there are corresponding documentation updates.

This patch (as874) adds another piece to the user-visible part of the
USB autosuspend interface. The new power/level sysfs attribute allows
users to force the device on (with autosuspend off), force the device
to sleep (with autoresume off), or return to normal automatic operation.

This patch (as867) adds an entry for the new power/autosuspend
attribute in Documentation/ABI/testing, and it changes the behavior of
the delay value. Now a delay of 0 means to autosuspend as soon as
possible, and negative values will prevent autosuspend.
