That's just naming issue, isn't it?

No, because you did not solve the problems I mentioned. This is neither
accurate hardware description nor proper Linux driver model handling PM
and unbind.

I don't see any difference between this device and onboard hub. The
concept and the problem is the same. Therefore either treat it as as
onboard hub or come with USB-version of PCI power sequencing.
