There is a bug in the current GPIO code for ftdi_sio: it failed to take USB
autosuspend into account. If the device is in autosuspend, calls to
usb_control_msg() fail with -EHOSTUNREACH. Because the standard value for
autosuspend timeout is usually 2-5 seconds, this made it almost impossible
to use the GPIOs on machines that have USB autosuspend enabled. This patch
fixes the issue by acquiring a PM lock on the device for the duration of
the USB transfers. Tested on an FT231X device.

Please consider backporting to 4.20.x, otherwise the GPIO driver is not
really usable for anybody with USB autosuspend enabled (eg. many laptops),
at least not without manual configuration.
