Now that every ioctl takes care of their power management we can remove the "global" power management. Despite its size, this is a relatively big change. We hope that there are no size effects of it. If there are some specific devices that miss-behave, we can add a small quirk for them. This patch introduces a behavioral change for the uvc "trigger" button. It will not work unless the camera is streaming. We consider that this the most common (if not the only) usecase and therefore we do not consider it a regression.
