5 Description:
6                 Each USB device directory will contain a file named
7                 power/autosuspend.  This file holds the time (in seconds)
8                 the device must be idle before it will be autosuspended.
9                 0 means the device will be autosuspended as soon as
10                 possible.  Negative values will prevent the device from
11                 being autosuspended at all, and writing a negative value
12                 will resume the device if it is already suspended.
14                 The autosuspend delay for newly-created devices is set to
15                 the value of the usbcore.autosuspend module parameter.

21 Description:
22                 If CONFIG_USB_PERSIST is set, then each USB device directory
23                 will contain a file named power/persist.  The file holds a
24                 boolean value (0 or 1) indicating whether or not the
25                 "USB-Persist" facility is enabled for the device.  Since the
26                 facility is inherently dangerous, it is disabled by default
27                 for all devices except hubs.  For more information, see
28                 Documentation/usb/persist.txt.

34 Description:
35                 If CONFIG_PM and CONFIG_USB_SUSPEND are enabled, then this file
36                 is present.  When read, it returns the total time (in msec)
37                 that the USB device has been connected to the machine.  This
38                 file is read-only.

47 Description:
48                 If CONFIG_PM and CONFIG_USB_SUSPEND are enabled, then this file
49                 is present.  When read, it returns the total time (in msec)
50                 that the USB device has been active, i.e. not in a suspended
51                 state.  This file is read-only.
53                 Tools can use this file and the connected_duration file to
54                 compute the percentage of time that a device has been active.
55                 For example,
56                 echo $((100 * `cat active_duration` / `cat connected_duration`))
57                 will give an integer percentage.  Note that this does not
58                 account for counter wrap.

67 Description:
68                 When read, this file returns 1 if the interface driver
69                 for this interface supports autosuspend.  It also
70                 returns 1 if no driver has claimed this interface, as an
71                 unclaimed interface will not stop the device from being
72                 autosuspended if all other interface drivers are idle.
73                 The file returns 0 if autosuspend support has not been
74                 added to the driver.

124 Contact:        CHENG Renquan <rqcheng@smu.edu.sg>
125 Description:
126                 Writing a device ID to this file will remove an ID
127                 that was dynamically added via the new_id sysfs entry.
128                 The format for the device ID is:
129                 idVendor idProduct.     After successfully
130                 removing an ID, the driver will no longer support the
131                 device.  This is useful to ensure auto probing won't
132                 match the driver to the device.  For example:
133                 # echo "046d c315" > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/foo/remove_id

140                 device will morph into another mode when it is reset.
141                 Drivers will not use reset for error handling for
142                 such devices.
