Prevent auto-save-list directory to be created

Question

Although I have disable auto-save and auto-backups, the directory auto-save-list is still autodramatically created in my .emacs.d directory.

(setq backup-inhibited t
      make-backup-files nil
      auto-save-default nil)

How can I prevent it to be created ?

To dereference @lawlist's comment (link to http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Auto_002dSaving.html):

User Option: auto-save-list-file-prefix

After Emacs reads your init file, it initializes auto-save-list-file-name (if you have not already set it non-nil) based on this prefix, adding the host name and process ID. If you set this to nil in your init file, then Emacs does not initialize auto-save-list-file-name.

You need to have an equivalent of the following in your init file:

(setq auto-save-list-file-prefix nil)
