When the camera is enabled, powertop says "device is active 100% of time".

/sys/module/usbcore/parameters/autosuspend and
/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.7/usb5/5-8/power/autosuspend both
contain 1, but powertop still suggests adding usbcore.autosuspend=1.
Though nothing related to USB exists in wakeup causes list.
