What is this autosleep?
-----------------------
It slows down the device after x seconds of inactivity. The thing is, we have
really achieved almost the same by runtime pm.
differnces are:
autosleep
* uses more power during inactivity
* the first read after inactivity slightly faster
* complicated to understand for the user
* no documented sysfs interface (afaik)
* complicated to read and maintain
runtime pm
* already merged in mma8452
* uses less power during inactivity
* first read after inactivity slower
* easy to use. well documented.
* easy to maintain and understand
The two approaches solve the same problem. runtime pm has more advantages
than autosleep and comes quite close to it's behaviour anyways. As I see it,
autosleep, even if somehow supported, would never be used anyways.
So resolve this issue by "ignoring" autosleep.

A good detailed explanation + to be cynical, if anyone actually wants to implement
it and provide numbers showing it is the best thing since sliced bread - the absence
of a comment about it not being done isn't going to stop them!
Applied, thanks,

I'm sorry, I messed up the first patch. Understandable though, given
it's complexity.

Took me a disturbingly long time to notice what was wrong.
Applied to the togreg branch of iio.git - pushed out as testing
for the autobuilders to play with it.
