Hi Alan,

Many thanks for the prompt review.

Agreed to avoid unneeded complexity.

A quick 'git grep' outputs below list of auditable candidates [1].

With no relevant devices at hand, I would avoid touching these drivers,
since oftentimes even legitimate patches introduce regressions w/o
testing.

If anybody volunteers with testing, I guess it should be quick to
either convert usb_autpm_get_interface to *_no_resume variant or
handle the return value in place in below instances.

[1] (v5.6-rc3) git grep -En "[^=]\s+usb_autopm_get_interface\("
  drivers/input/touchscreen/usbtouchscreen.c:1788:  usb_autopm_get_interface(intf);
  drivers/media/usb/stkwebcam/stk-webcam.c:628:     usb_autopm_get_interface(dev->interface);
  drivers/net/usb/hso.c:1308:                       usb_autopm_get_interface(serial->parent->interface);
  drivers/net/usb/r8152.c:5231:                     usb_autopm_get_interface(tp->intf);
  sound/usb/usx2y/us122l.c:192:                     usb_autopm_get_interface(iface);
