  According to documentation of "Power Management for USB" (, Alan Stern 
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, October 5, 2007. )  
  kernel, up version 2.6.22, use 0 for "autosuspend as soon as the device 
becomes idle" but -1 means never to autosuspend.

   power/autosuspend
  
                  This file contains an integer value, which is the
                  number of seconds the device should remain idle before
                  the kernel will autosuspend it (the idle-delay time).
                  The default is 2.  0 means to autosuspend as soon as
                  the device becomes idle, and -1 means never to
                  autosuspend.  You can write a number to the file to
                  change the autosuspend idle-delay time.
  
  Writing "-1" to power/autosuspend and writing "on" to power/level do
  essentially the same thing -- they both prevent the device from being
  autosuspended.  Yes, this is a redundancy in the API.
  
  (In 2.6.21 writing "0" to power/autosuspend would prevent the device
  from being autosuspended; the behavior was changed in 2.6.22.  The
  power/autosuspend attribute did not exist prior to 2.6.21, and the
  power/level attribute did not exist prior to 2.6.22.)
