I wish there was a short name that meant "try to power off in suspend
unless there's an active wakeup source underneath you". The name here
is a bit misleading since we might keep this powered if there's an
active wakeup source even if "power_off_in_suspend" is true... I
wonder if it's easier to describe the opposite, like
"always_power_in_suspend". Then, if that's false, it'll be in
"automatic" mode and if it's true it'll always keep powered.

I guess you can also argue about what the default should be. I guess
if you just left it as zero-initted then we'd (by default) power off
in suspend. To me that seems like a saner default, but I'm probably
biased.

I didn't try to grok all the removal corner cases since it seems like
you and Alan have been going over that. If you feel like this needs
extra attention then yell and I'll look closer.

You only need "onboard-usb-hub" here. The bindings still have
"realtek,rts5411" in them in case we later have to do something
different/special on that device, but the whole idea of including the
generic is that we don't need to add every specific instance to this
table.

The above is pretty much nits, though, so:
