Re: USB device PM oddity in 3.5

[Matthew Garrett <mjg@redhat.com>]

udev is being a little too aggressive in enabling autosuspend. I've just 
sent a patch upstream, but here it is:

commit 35c62663b93adb6ab321ca1e6ac6f1ba580b37aa

    rules: Limit USB autosuspend on USB HID devices
    
    Some USB ports on external hubs may be reported as "fixed". We only want
    to auto-enable this on ports that are internal to the machine, so check
    the parent state as well.
