I had another look at your patch. It calls scsi_device_quiesce(), which causes all normal requests to be deferred. Hence under normal operation the device would never autoresume -- user requests would be deferred and never sent to usb-storage. It will be necessary to modify scsi_prep_fn(), so that if the device is in the SDEV_QUIESCE state because of autosuspend when a request arrives, a workqueue routine initiates an autoresume.
