Here comes another one, integrated Chicony webcam 04f2:b39f, its autosuspend makes `poweroff` performs rebooting at the laptop I'm working on. I tried USB_QUIRK_RESET_RESUME, not helping. The quirks list will go longer and longer absolutely, do uvcvideo wanna maintain that? And why only uvcvideo do this in kernel space which against general USB module? I still suggest we disable it by default, people can enable it in udev just like almost all distroes do for udisks.
