Comment 0 for bug 1094534

My laptop has one USB 2.0 port and a couple of USB 3.0 ports. I don't think the USB 3.0 ports have ever worked. There are a couple of different USB controllers listed in lspci:

$ sudo lspci -nn | grep USB
00:1d.0 USB controller [0c03]: Intel Corporation 7 Series/C210 Series Chipset Family USB Enhanced Host Controller #1 [8086:1e26] (rev 04)
03:00.0 USB controller [0c03]: Renesas Technology Corp. Device [1912:0015] (rev 02)

lsusb lists a 3.0 root hub along wit the 2.0 one.

$ sudo lsusb
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 8087:0024 Intel Corp. Integrated Rate Matching Hub
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 8087:07da Intel Corp.
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 2232:1024

I see the following errors in dmesg output (and nothing when I plug/unplug a device):

$ dmesg | grep xhci
[ 3916.808221] xhci_hcd 0000:03:00.0: WARN: xHC restore state timeout
