It is disabled by default. I just wanted to make sure an installed udev
script wasn't enabling auto-suspend.
You can check whether auto-suspend is enabled by running powertop and
looking for the lines that correspond to the USB 3.0 to eSATA adapters.
If they say 'Bad', device suspend is disabled. If they say 'Good',
device suspend is enabled.
Or you can find the power/control entries for the devices in
/sys/bus/usb/devices/ and make sure they say 'on' rather than 'auto'.

That means my USB mouse is 'on', so device auto-suspend is disabled.
