I can try to move it to the uvc driver. But maybe it is better to keep it here:

The same vid:pid also has other functionality, not only uvc: Sync
agent interface, UPD Interface, ADB interface.
If we apply the quirk to the uvc driver, and the uvc driver is not
loaded, the other functionality will still be broken....

I expect to see more devices from Logitech not needing the
RESET_RESUME quirk... so this list will eventually grow.

Setting/useting RESET_RESUME in two different locations, can make the
code difficult to follow.

What do you think?
