If you know which of the two that child is attached to, then I think you don't need both, but I think we have to use the entire addressing. In Alan's example, there are six HS ports and three SS ports, but as I understand it, there is no guarantee that the numbering between the two is identical, and that the three SS ports always refer to the three HS ports. In particular for devices soldered on-board (rather than connected through a standard plug), I would guess that it is possible to connect them to separate child devices though I have to admit that I do not understand enough of the standard to know for sure.
