USB: Export if an interface driver supports autosuspend.
Create a new sysfs file per interface named supports_autosuspend. This file returns true if an interface driver's .supports_autosuspend flag is set. It also returns true if the interface is unclaimed (since the USB core will autosuspend a device if an interface is not claimed). This new sysfs file will be useful for user space scripts to test whether a USB device correctly auto-suspends.

93Description:
94 When read, this file returns 1 if the interface driver
95 for this interface supports autosuspend. It also
96 returns 1 if no driver has claimed this interface, as an
97 unclaimed interface will not stop the device from being
98 autosuspended if all other interface drivers are idle.
99 The file returns 0 if autosuspend support has not been
100 added to the driver.
