It's in the USB hub spec.  One sets a per-port bit; that puts the
device into USB suspend state.  All USB devices "must" support
that state, it's not in the least specific to storage devices.

That is, usb_suspend_device() does the job, it's just an issue
of using that call.

There can be device-specific additional behaviors, like
enabling drive spindown.  But as in the example I gave,
Linux doesn't necessarily need to know about that stuff;
it can happen automatically as part of suspending.
