usb: core: don't try to reset_device() a port that got just disconnected The USB hub driver's event handler contains a check to catch SuperSpeed devices that transitioned into the SS.Inactive state and tries to fix them with a reset. It decides whether to do a plain hub port reset or call the usb_reset_device() function based on whether there was a device attached to the port. However, there are device/hub combinations (found with a JetFlash Transcend mass storage stick (8564:1000) on the root hub of an Intel LynxPoint PCH) which can transition to the SS.Inactive state on disconnect (and stay there long enough for the host to notice). In this case, above-mentioned reset check will call usb_reset_device() on the stale device data structure. The kernel will send pointless LPM control messages to the no longer connected device address and can even cause several 5 second khubd stalls on some (buggy?) host controllers, before finally accepting the device's fate amongst a flurry of error messages. This patch makes the choice of reset dependent on the port status that has just been read from the hub in addition to the existence of an in-kernel data structure for the device, and only proceeds with the more extensive reset if both are valid.
