Good question ... best if Intel answers it.  :0

One data point:  on the laptop used to type this message,
the GPE code block includes stuff like this for each UHCI:

        Method (_L0C, 0, NotSerialized)
        {
            Notify (\_SB.PCI0.USB3, 0x02)
        }

Without diving into the ICHx specs (which I believe DO have
such details, thanks be!), my first reaction is that this is
not a "case (c)".  Of course, the rest of the AML code is,
as usual, cryptic (I'd rather have C code), and such stuff
might be hidden elsewhere in the event sequence.
