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.
