Because we only want to apply it to a specific device instance under
our control.
We apply autosuspend to built-in touchpad device for power savings,
Users can attach external hub devices with same VID:PID that we don't want to
change the behavior. Maybe disabling autosuspend for external HIDs
can be more reasonable for that case?

When a user starts to move the cursor while touchpad is in autosuspend state,
It takes more than >250ms (worst case can be >500ms) to wake up and response.
That makes the cursor stuck for a while and warp to another location suddenly.
