A change has recently been committed that results in the button only 
working if the v4l device is open. Otherwise you've got several wakeups 
a second due to the polling of the button endpoint. I'm assuming that 
opening the device disables autosuspend, so I wouldn't worry about that.

It'd be interesting to try enabling autosuspend on all UVC devices. Can 
a driver indicate that its hardware supports it?
